Members of the Gospel Choir sing "We Shall Overcome" during the Black History Month celebration, Feb. 22, at Bagram Air Field, Afghanistan. This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 passed by President Lyndon B. Johnson with the influence of several civil rights leaders to include Dr. Martin Luther King; however, the law wasn't solely about African Americans' rights, but for freedom for all people.
