COLORED CONFEDERATES: Myth or Matter of Fact?
[39min. 51sec., professional documentary] Directed by: Ken Wyatt, Rocky Mount, NC
We often imagine the soldiers that fought for the Confederate States of America as all white. But, is that accurate? Evidence of Confederate soldiers of color is hard to find in official records. On the other hand, studies and media (e.g., the film, Glory) acknowledging 200,000 blacks’ participation in the Union army are abundant. The fact is that enlistment of blacks was simply prohibited by the Confederate government. Such a thought of “gun-toting” black southerners was unthinkable in the nineteenth century, because blacks were not recognized (let alone acknowledged) as citizens. Historians agree that stories of black body servants and fortification builders (as seen in the film, Gone with the Wind) are plentiful, however did blacks actively fight for the values of the “Old South” and if so why? After years of research and on-camera interviews, COLORED CONFEDERATES: Myth or Matter of Fact?, attempts to shed light on and untangle of this obscure corner of American history. See Civil War experts, historians, and re-enactors hash out this one-and-a-half-century-old debate!
