Glory, Presented by The Boston Globe Black History Month Film Festival

Join The Boston Globe throughout the month of February to honor films and filmmakers documenting the Black experience and the continued plight of systemic racism in the United States.

Following the Battle of Antietam, Col. Robert Gould Shaw (Matthew Broderick) is offered command of the first all-African-American regiment, the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry.
