'I only want to live, But I know I must die. This man's war, Is a mean man's war, for sure' (Gravedigger's Song, 1918) The great battle for democracy and equality erupts amidst the backdrop of WWI France, 1918. The Yankee Division Reserves advance across a battlefield on a frozen October morning. They march directly into a row of German machine gunners in one of the most brutal massacres of the war: The Argonne Forest Counter-Offensive. Though far from home, the racial tensions of early America filtered into the green fields of France. White soldiers hoisted rifles while Black soldiers broke the earth with shovels. The all too common scenes of the Black 'gravediggers' burying White corpses into mass graves littered the war-torn landscape.
