EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the intensity and bravery of the Battle of Quasimas near Santiago, which took place on June 24, 1898. The Spanish-American War was in its final stages, with the United States determined to secure control of Cuba from Spanish forces. In this pivotal engagement, the 9th and 10th Colored Cavalry regiments, along with the famed Rough Riders, provided crucial support to the American cause. The image shows the 9th and 10th Cavalry troops charging forward, their horses rearing and snorting, as they engage the Spanish forces in the distance. The Rough Riders, led by Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, are also visible in the background, their rifles at the ready. The battlefield is a chaotic scene of smoke, dust, and the clash of steel, as the two sides exchange blows. The inclusion of the 9th and 10th Colored Cavalry regiments in this engagement was significant, as they were the first African American units to see combat in the U.S. military. Their participation in the Battle of Quasimas helped to dispel the myth that African Americans were incapable of serving in the military with distinction. Despite being outnumbered and outgunned, the American forces emerged victorious, dealing a decisive blow to the Spanish forces and paving the way for the eventual surrender of Santiago de Cuba. This print serves as a powerful reminder of the courage and determination of the soldiers who fought in this important battle, and the role that the 9th and 10th Colored Cavalry played in American military history.
