The event you describe is from the movie "Glory" that tells the story of the all-black 54th Massachusetts Infantry Regiment. This movie is based upon facts but many of the conversations were probably written by the film writers. This event probably did take place as there have been documents that show there was resistance to providing uniforms and guns to the black soldiers. There are a couple of books about Colonel Shaw that may give more detail on his life. But I don't think Colonel Shaw recorded this conversation.
