Long before the Civil Rights movement, the Tuskegee Airmen fought for equality for the Black Americans and the Brown, Red, White and Yellow Americans. First the Black Americans integrated the Armed Forces and then a whole nation and did it with competency, skill, valor, and courage in combating the enemy abroad and racism at home. Because they stood tall, African Americans and fellow Americans are all the better for it.  They did it because they were Americans too.  The United States is their country and their families live here because they are from the United States.  The Tuskegee Airmen fought for America all the way up to giving up their lives for all Americans.  Thank you very much Tuskegee Airmen.
