DESCENDANTS CAMPAIGN

A small donation of $25 from just ONE descendant of each of the Louisiana families can fund this entire project, with no corners cut and no funder or government agency pushing for a lesser version of this project. This has consistently been a problem when it comes to telling Black Stories that do not center around White heroes. Help us to do this the right way with our full vision.

There was a recorded 200,000 Black men who fought in the Civil War, nationwide. The largest amount of volunteers at roughly 28,000 hailed from Louisiana. 2,223 of these men were led by and fought at the side of the esteemed and courageous, Captain André Cailloux. We are asking any and ALL DESCENDANTS of Civil War Veterans to support this long overdue legacy project. Look in the Book of Names to see if your ancestor was in Cailloux Regiment(s).
