The Tuskegee Airmen: Return to Ramitelli Film Screening

Cost: Free
USER SUBMITTED
From the venue:
Filmed entirely on location, we visit Foggia, Italy and Ramitelli Airfield, the home base of the famed Tuskegee Airmen in World War II. Today, there is a memorial in Foggia recognizing the legacy of the Tuskegee airmen, and this is the foundation of our film which chronicles their story and legacy in the war. We hear from those fighter pilots and ground crews who served in Italy and despite fighting valiantly and with tremendous results for the Allies and for America, still faced segregation and racism. In a rare interview, we also include the WWII story of Ms. Alma Bailey, a nurse and one of the very few women to earn the title of a Tuskegee Airman.
