We continue to read about the poor fashion African-American sailors were treated in. This book is helping me comprehend how horribly African-Americans who fought for our country were treated.

Thurgood Marshall is brought into the book to defend the black sailors. I can’t believe after all that happened during the trial all 50 sailors were still found guilty of mutiny.

We truly begin to dive in to the everyday day hardships a black sailor must face like where they eat and use the bathroom. This book continues to give me courage as to how all these black sailors were able to overcome these hardships they must endure.

This heartfelt book takes place at Pearl Harbor on Dec 7, 1941. We begin to read the dramtic story of Dorie Miller who we find out has become one of the first African-American heroes of WW2. It seems like this will be a great story of bravery and inspiration.
