This is a video of a fascinating and insightful discussion on the U.S. Colored Troops in Mississippi. The event was hosted by the Mississippi Department of Archives and History on Thursday, March 14, 2024, at the Two Museums in Jackson, Miss.
 
I served as a panelist along with Dr. Albert Dorsey Jr., center, assistant professor of History at Jackson State University. Mr. Michael Morris, director of the Two Museums, served as moderator.
 
Many thanks to Drew Gardner, manager of Family and Community Learning at MDAH, for inviting me to participate in this important program.
