About this listen

Unveiling a searing narrative of sacrifice, betrayal, and resilience, The Disgrace of America’s Empire tells the stories of forgotten patriots—Black, Latino, Asian, and LGBTQ+ soldiers who served the United States with valor, only to face discrimination, deportation, and systemic injustice upon their return.

Through the lives of these brave men and women, Michael J. Henderson exposes the hidden hypocrisies of American history. From the Tuskegee Airmen fighting racism in the skies to immigrant Marines stripped of citizenship, each chapter captures their fight against the illusion of equality in a nation built on selective freedom.

Henderson, a decorated officer and human rights advocate, combines historical research with personal accounts to shine a light on the sacrifices of those who bled for a country that refused to embrace them. This powerful book challenges listeners to confront America’s legacy of systemic oppression and inspires action toward justice, inclusion, and healing.

A must-listen for history enthusiasts, activists, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the untold struggles of marginalized communities in the military and beyond.
