What is the story of Glory?

Answer 1

'Glory' is based on the letters of Colonel Robert G. Shaw. He was an officer in the Federal Army during the Civil War who volunteered to lead the first company of black soldiers. Colonel Shaw was faced with dealing with the prejudices of both the enemy (who had orders to kill commanding officers of blacks), and of his own fellow officers. The story was made into a popular movie by the same name, starring Matthew Broderick.

Answer 2

"Glory" is a 1989 war film directed by Edward Zwick that tells the inspiring true story of the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry, the first all-black regiment in the Union Army during the American Civil War. The film follows the regiment as they face discrimination and ultimately fight bravely in the Battle of Fort Wagner. It highlights themes of equality, bravery, and sacrifice.
