Black Yanks: Defending Leroy Henry In D-day Britain Event Title Pic

Description

This is the story of how an African American soldier from Missouri ended up on death row in D-Day Britain ? and the extraordinary campaign that set him free. The drama played out over a tumultuous six weeks, set against a backdrop of the most audacious sea-borne invasion ever attempted. Within the pages of ?Blinded by Colour,? Kate Werran unearths archival material to reveal the story behind the first significant ? if uncelebrated ? win in the civil rights movement, a story that has been overlooked for nearly eight decades. Until now.
