This, the fifth volume in the series Double Exposure, presents fifty
images of African Americans in uniform, from the Civil War to the War in
Iraq. The selection of photographs, which exemplify stories of
patriotism, courage, and dignity, are enriched by the unique perspective
of Frank Bolden, Jr., 12th Administrator of NASA and Gail Lumet Buckley,
author of American Patriots. Photographers include Anthony Barboza, a
staff photographer in the U.S. Navy, Henry Clay Anderson who studied
photography at Southern University under the G.I. Bill, and Robert
Scurlock whose famous photographs of the Tuskegee Airmen still live with
us today.
