Tougaloo, MS: NMHS Publications (2013)

As new in paperback with DVD.

“Did Johnny Come Marching Home?” explores the role of people of African descent in the Civil War; specifically the role of these soldiers in the state of Mississippi. While it may be of interest, to some, to continue this civil war in color, the more important fact is that black men, men of valor did fight to help free themselves. It is because of their sacrifice that we have the freedom to discuss, the right to disagree, the privilege of voting and the obligation to continue. The film runs 20:47.

The companion book presents pictures and information not covered in film.
