Black Americans are the original and unique citizens of the United States. Atomized individuals from the longest-settled and most various human population,
they have brought forth here among the white settlers from across the Atlantic and the Pacific and the original settlers from over the pole
a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Eyes on the prize, the invasion of the Republic of Viet Nam
was the first war through which they all could rise so far as any man may go. Many did. But it is rough history to tell, so I have found myself
telling bright, learned teachers every school year for 30 years about this prominently published, straightforward novel set among black Americans in black history in Viet Nam.
Here I go again, the second of 3 Viet Nam letters I have written so far out of maybe a dozen total to come, about Captain Blackman who rehearses all of American history as he bleeds out in Viet Nam.
The novelist John Williams is dead now himself. Please join the congregation for his remembrance and those of my other saints by subscribing for free.
$50/year will patronize all the other readers. $250/year will build the enterprise. We are a charity, like church or the theater. You may deduct any support from income before tax.
