This is a true story of the life of Mingo Sanders. Freed from slavery during the Civil War, he rises to become the First Sergeant of the U.S. Army Bicycle Corps and leads his company through two deployments in the Spanish American war, first Cuba and later the Philippine Islands. In the shadow of the Buffalo Soldiers legacy, his honor was crushed into the ground of Brownsville, Texas by the Rough Riders Colonel. Time rights the wrongs done to him when President Theodore Roosevelt's actions are overturned by the first U.S. Army Equal Opportunity Office. Why haven't you ever heard of him? No longer living, and no with living relatives, his legacy has never been fully restored. Can it be when government institutions, corrupted by baked in racism, have worked for so long to keep his story from blemishing the Medal of Honor recipient and face of Mount Rushmore?
