We Serve Too

We Serve Too Music, Family, Fun, Art! African American soldiers have fought in every single war in American history. We served honorably, even before we were considered U.S.

citizens. We became citizens around the year of 1868 but African Americans fought in the revolutionary war as slaves from 1775 to 1783. We started “We Serve Too” to do our part in honoring our brothers and sisters, who have given their lives to protect the United States of America, and to pay homage to those who continue to serve in today’s American armed forces.
