This work is a 112 ft installation located along the perimeter fence at College Park Memorial Cemetery. It is a series of life size acrylic silhouettes depicting soldiers from the 24th infantry of the Historic Buffalo Soldiers. The “Houston 13” soldiers of the Buffalo Soldiers 24th Infantry were convicted at an unfair trial and then executed without the right for clemency. Efforts to pardon these soldiers are being led by the descendants of the soldiers; both family and brothers and sisters in arms.
