Iowa Civil Rights History
Black Iowans In Defense of the Nation, 1863-1991 - (William S. Morris)
William Morris stands out as a contributing author within the pages of the renowned Iowan publication, "Outside In: African-American History in Iowa, 1838-2000." His distinctive contribution resonates through Chapter 5 of this work, entitled "Black Iowans in Defense of the Nation: 1863 to 1991." Generously, William engaged in a conversation with me, shedding light on his literary contributions, his insights into the experiences of Iowa's black veterans, and other subjects.
