“ Buy a Coin, Help Build a Memorial”
B a J ohn U ndei . and
The quest to build a memorial to
African American heroes of the Revo
lutionary War gained momentum as
the Black Patriots Foundation hosted
a dramatic Capitol Hill unveiling of

momentum depends on strong pub

sales are earmarked by legislation to
help build the Black Patriots Memo
rial - a point underscored by a num
ber of speakers.
“Buy the com and help build the
memorial," said C. Payne Lucas,
president of Africare "Everyone who
buys the Black Patriots Coin will be
preserving our shared history. And
African Americans who purchase
coins will be making a personal in
vestment in our people's history and
our children's future.
Added renowned actor Ossie
Davis: "These simple but elegant
coins will help educate Americans
like no coin before it. And when
we’ve built this Memorial, genera
tions forever intothe future will know
that African Americans also played a
significant role in the founding of
this country.”
The Black Patriots Foundation is
dedicated to building a memorial on
the National Mall in Washington.
DC to honor more than 5,000 men.
women, and children who served in
the Revolutionary War - a little-
known but significant chapter of
