Unfree liberators

Liberators is a 90-minute special on the role of black US soldiers in World War II, with a particular focus on the battalions that freed prisoners of the Buchenwald and Dachau concentration camps.

Black soldiers of course had an additional enemy besides the Nazis — the racism that kept them segregated even within the army.

Liberators screens on SBS television on Wednesday, November 11, 8.30 p.m. eastern time.

About 91̳

In a desperately unequal world facing a climate emergency, wars and growing inequality, everyone has to pick a side.

Our side is — and always will be — that of the 99%.

Our goal is not only to expose the lies, hypocrisy and bias of the billionaire class and their media: we seek to help the organising efforts of all those actively resisting the increasingly authoritarian rule of the corporate rich, here and overseas.
