Through the Flak: War Stories of the Tuskegee Airmen (2019)

Lt. Col. Alexander Jefferson, 96, and Lt. Col. Harry T. Stewart, 93, two of the last living Tuskegee Airmen, recount their pulse-pounding and often heartbreaking experiences as the first African American military pilots who not only fought a World War, but fought for the right to fight for their country. A story that begins in the segregated fields of Alabama, where blacks were not considered intelligent enough to fly planes, ultimately carries audiences from the embattled skies above Italy, to German POW and concentration camps, and back to a segregated America they were willing to give their lives for. In their own words, Jefferson and Stewart mix war adventure and memoir into a movingly intimate account of what it means to serve a country that doesn't want you.
