Mutiny on the bayou : the Camp Logan story

This locally produced documentary tells the dramatic story of the 1917 events surrounding the famous Buffalo Soldiers as they were ordered to guard Camp Logan (now Memorial Park). Civil unrest led to a race riot and the deaths of 16 Houstonians, including five police officers. The program explores the emotional and cultural pressures that brought a group of black soldiers with a record of exemplary service to a military court and then to the executioner's gallows
