What happen in the brownville incident?

The Brownsville Incident refers to a racially charged event that occurred in 1906 in Brownsville, Texas, involving the 25th Infantry Regiment, an all-Black Army unit. Following a shooting in the town that resulted in the death of a local bartender, white residents accused the soldiers of the crime. In response, President Theodore Roosevelt dishonorably discharged 167 soldiers without a fair trial, a decision that sparked significant controversy and debates over racial injustice and military conduct. The incident highlighted racial tensions in the U.S. and remains a significant moment in African American military history.
