Civil War: The Untold Story—River of Death
2014・United States・54 minutes
This series takes you back to the battlefields and homes of the mid-19th century with a new perspective, and explores the political struggles of the North-South split, the conflicting roots of slavery, and the key role of African Americans in the war. Through rarely exposed materials and reconstructed scenes, this chapter of American history, the bloodiest and most critical, is reproduced. When Lincoln delivered the "Emancipation Proclamation," the war shifted from "unifying the country" to "abolishing slavery," and African Americans finally gained the freedom to participate in the war.
