107TH ANNIVERSARY OF CAMP LOGAN WAR

Freedman’s Town grassroot residents and other Moor American neighborhoods celebrate annually the remembrance and show of love, respect and appreciation to the 3rd Battalion, 24th Infantry soldiers stationed at Camp Logan (Memorial Park today), for standing against Jim Crow Houston police department and racist Caucasians that led to the war on August 23, 1917. Attendees of Freedman’s Town listened and learned while others posed questions. Danny Russo of Houston’s French Town provided entertainment. Recommended reading of Dr. Fred McGhee’s book, “Mutiny of Rage: Th e Camp Logan Riots and Buffalo Soldiers in Houston” on the Camp Logan War is avail-able on Amazon and the movie “24” is on DVD, but you must be courageous to view it. Gladys House El has the transcripts of the three court martials and it is educational reading. Hat recipients recognized for their community service.
