EDITORS COMMENTS
WWI: PARADE, 1919. The historic moment captured in this sepia-toned photograph showcases the 369th Infantry Regiment as they proudly march along Fifth Avenue in New York City. It was February of 1919 when this remarkable scene unfolded, marking a significant milestone for African American soldiers who served their country during World War I. Leading the procession is a formation of brave men dressed in uniform, rifles held high and helmets gleaming under the early morning sun. The crowd lining the parade route waves flags and cheers with enthusiasm, honoring these heroes who fought valiantly overseas. On the reviewing stand, notable figures such as Governor Al Smith, Charles S. Whitman, Rodman Wanamaker, Major General Thomas Henry Barry, Robert L. Moran, and Admiral Albert Gleaves observe with admiration and respect. Their presence symbolizes recognition for the extraordinary contributions made by these African American troops. This powerful image captures not only a momentous event but also represents an important step towards equality and recognition for black soldiers within our nation's history. It serves as a testament to their courage and dedication amidst challenging times. Preserved by Granger Art on Demand from The Granger Collection archives, this print offers viewers an opportunity to reflect upon the sacrifices made by those who paved the way for future generations.
