Preserving US Colored Troops’ Stories

An inspiring conversation about a grassroots initiative that's making history more accessible for everyone. We're bringing together researchers, volunteers, and descendants to share an important project focused on digitizing records of United States Colored Troops who served during the Civil War. This project represents more than just digitizing documents; it's about connecting families to their heritage and ensuring these important stories are preserved. Whether you're interested in genealogy, history, or simply want to learn how small actions can make a big difference, this conversation is for you.
