Description
Salado Creek, Texas, 1918: Thirteen Black soldiers stood at attention in front of gallows erected specifically for their hanging. They had been convicted of participating in one of America’s most infamous Black uprisings, the Camp Logan Mutiny, otherwise known as the 1917 Houston Riots. The revolt and ensuing riots were carried out by men of the 3rd Battalion of the all-Black 24th U.S. Infantry Regiment - the famed Buffalo Soldiers - after members of the Houston Police Department violently menaced them and citizens of the local Black community. It all took place over one single bloody night.
In the wake of the uprising, scores lay dead, including bystanders, police, and soldiers. This incident remains one of Texas’ most complicated and misrepresented historical events. It shook race relations in Houston and created conditions that sparked a nationwide surge of racial activism. In the aftermath of the carnage, what was considered the “trial of the century” ensued.
