Family Project: Farrell

Exhibit offers insight into African American WWII Sailors

My great-grandpa Farrell was a captain of the U.S.S. Mason during World War II. His ship was one of the very first with a predominately black crew. I am going to focus some of my family project on him. The article I linked describes the ship rather well. There was also a book and movie made on the ship. I will be tying these aspects into forms of modern journalism. I decided this would be a good way to start because it is journalism.
