    Robert Child presents The Lost Eleven: The Forgotten Story

    6:00 p.m. Presentation  |  7:00 p.m. Book Signing

    Presented in partnership with The Amistad Research Center at Tulane University

    During the Battle of the Bulge, Nazis massacred 11 brave African American soldiers in the village of Wereth, Belgium. Although they sacrificed their lives during a time when they weren’t treated equally because of the color of their skin—even on American soil—this heroic story was left out of history books. It took 70 years for Congress to recognize the valor and bravery of these 11 men. Coauthor Robert Child tells the individual stories of these artillerymen, the Belgian family that took them in, and the boy who couldn’t forget the courageous men who died in the field. A book signing will follow the presentation.

    Kara Tucina Olidge, PhD—executive director of the Amistad Research Center at Tulane—will introduce the program.
