The Black Brigade of Cincinnati was a military unit of African-American soldiers, that was organized in 1862 during the American Civil War, when the city of Cincinnati, Ohio, was in danger of being attacked, by the Confederate Army. The members of the Cincinnati "Black Brigade" were among the first African Americans to be employed in the military defense of the Union. The fortifications—including forts, miles of military roads, miles of rifle pits, magazines, and hundreds of acres of cleared forests—at the border of Northern Kentucky thwarted the major threat to Cincinnati during the Civil War.

  • 辛辛那提黑旅(Black Brigade of Cincinnati)是為美國內戰期間的一個北軍軍事組織,因為南軍要進攻俄亥俄州的辛辛那提而倉皇成立。 辛辛那提起初禁止黑人加入軍隊,戰爭開始時黑人亦只可以在警察的監視下從事堡壘維修,而且有一些白人警察會以強權壓迫黑人勞工。直到聯邦中將上任,所有黑人才得到公平的對待。 內戰初期,南方的亨利將軍奉命攻佔辛辛那提,因為她是全美第六大城市。鎮長即時宣戰; 聯邦將軍華萊士(Lew Wallace)亦倉皇成立一支新軍團。雖是如此,但50,000名自願軍加上(104th Ohio Infantry)的22,000名軍人,令辛辛那提的防線固若金湯。終於,1862年9月,南軍到達辛辛那提的防線前,猶疑了整整一天,就於13日全面撤退。華萊士也被譽為“辛辛那提的救世主”(Savior of Cincinnati)。 (zh)
