About this listen
Hello and welcome to Civil War Stories. I'm your host, Steve Matthews. Today we're going to explore one of the most crucial yet often overlooked aspects of the American Civil War - the extraordinary contributions of African Americans to the Union victory and their own liberation. This is not just a story of military service, though that was remarkable enough. It's the story of how nearly 200,000 Black Americans transformed themselves from enslaved people and second-class citizens into soldiers, spies, nurses, and leaders who fundamentally changed the nature of the war and secured their own path to freedom.
