Glory

The movie Glory accurately portrayed the life of an African-American soldier during the Civil War.  It's no real surprise that many white soldiers were racist towards the African-American soldiers.  Though what I did find shocking, is the punishment given to African-American soldiers.  I highly doubt that white soldiers received the same type of treatment.  I find it interesting that African-Americans still served in the army despite the fact that they were still treated like slaves.  This movie was fairly accurate in terms of history along with a touch of drama to keep things interesting.
