"This Little Light of Mine," by Charles Jones and the 2011 Student Freedom Riders.
American Experience, TV's most-watched history series, brings to life the compelling stories from our past that inform our understanding of the world today.
Video description: The Great War tells the rich and complex story of WWI through the voices of nurses, journalists, aviators and the American troops who came to be known as “doughboys.” The series explores the experiences of African American and Latino soldiers, suffragists, Native American “code talkers” and others whose participation in the war to “make the world safe for democracy” has been largely forgotten.
