Invisible Warriors shares the individual experiences of a small group of elegant ladies who represent the 600,000 Black women who fled  domestic lives and sharecroppers to work in factories and U.S. government offices during World War II. These patriotic pioneers share their wartime memories, recounting their battles against racism at home, Nazism abroad, and sexism everywhere. This documentary film was produced by historian Gregory S. Cooke.
