He also examines the impact of the war on black communities in the United States, including the emergence of the New Negro movement and the struggle for civil rights.The title of the book refers to the emblem of the French Army's 369th Infantry Regiment, which was composed entirely of African American soldiers and became known as the Harlem Hellfighters.
