Approximately 370,000 African Americans served in the First World War, including thousands of Georgians. In Bulloch County, dozens of African American men volunteered for or were drafted into service, and 13 of those men died while in uniform. This project aims to grant Bulloch County’s fallen African Americans the place they deserve in the community’s collective memory of those who made the ultimate sacrifice during the First World War. The exhibit soft opens on this day with an accompanying lecture taking place on April 1, 2025.

This program is supported by a grant from Georgia Humanities.
