360,000 white male and 37,000 black male Union soldiers gave their lives to free the slaves in the Civil War. This is a story about one who lived through it. The Centum Diary: One Year in the Life of Union Soldier https://t.co/yVPKcCdYi5 #FortWagner

3/n La scena dell'assalto a #FortWagner è immortalata anche nel celebre film di #EdwardZwick: #Glory. Paradossalmente, anche questo monumento è stato vandalizzato durante i riot antirazzisti seguiti alla morte di #GeorgeFloid #Woke #ACW #AmericanCivilWar

2/n Il monumento è stato progettato dall'architetto Stanford White e realizzato dallo scultore Augustus Saint-Gaudens. Il colonnello è rappresentato alla testa del suo reparto durante l'assalto a #FortWagner dove il reggimento di colore venne praticamente annientato #ACW #Boston

Lincoln spent the first two years of his presidency plotting to deport all Black people out of the U.S. Political support for "colonization" evaporated #OTD when the all-Black 54th Massachusetts Infantry Regiment fought the Second Battle of Fort Wagner near Charleston. A 🧵 1/

#OTD 18 July 1863 #54th Massachusetts assaults #FortWagner, SC. Some of those men may have answered the call in Frederick Douglass's op-ed from a few months before. https://t.co/bLtbv4Uxrp

The 54th gained notoriety for their valiant lead assault on #FortWagner near #Charleston the night of July 18, 1863. The regiment suffered a horrific 42% casualty rate and lost 280 out of 600 men.
