Explanation:

Double Victory spotlights the historic role of the Tuskegee Airmen

during World War II, revealing the ways these African Americans

bravely fought a war on two fronts: they helped the world triumph

against fascism abroad and they fought valiantly for racial justice and

equality at home. Though the Tuskegee Airmen faced the enormous

challenges of discrimination from military officers, inferior equipment

and heightened scrutiny, these pilots and their support personnel

excelled. Featuring many Tuskegee pilots who tell powerful stories of

their experiences during the war, Double Victory shows how these

airmen helped defeat fascism in Europe and helped inspire the

Civil Rights Movement upon their return.

“ You can’t turn your back on your own country. We’re

as patriotic as anybody else. And we wanted our chance

to prove that we could do something.

– Lt. Col. George Hardy, USAF (Ret.) Pilot, 332nd Fighter Group

Aristocrats wanted to retain their power and wealth by taxing the people and the philosophers wanted to establish democracies that would give more power and wealth to the people.
