    Over 50 countries fought on the battlegrounds of Asia, Europe, North Africa, the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, and the Mediterranean Sea in one of the world's most deadly and costliest wars in world history, World War II. The United States entered the war in 1941 after Japanese planes bombed Pearl Harbor, Hawaii on December 7, 1941. Research estimates that during World War II over 2.5 million Negro men registered for the draft, and large numbers of Negro women volunteered to serve in the Army, Army Air Forces, Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard. Although these men and women experienced discrimination and segregation, they served their country with great distinction and made valuable contributions to the war efforts.

    The 21st Century Freedom Colonies Exhibit featuring Acres Homes is a visual editorial documentary designed to create awareness, inform, educate, and stimulate learning through positive imaging and storytelling using photography and cinematography. Although Acres Homes was established in 1910, very few people are aware of the community's contributions to society and that it is a freedom colony. The exhibit comprises a series of images and a feature film illuminating the historical significance and preservation of the Acres Homes community cultural heritage sites, people, places, and things by documenting and publishing a series of interviews, black and white, full color photographs, simple captions, and short feature films. The project is funded in part by the City of Houston and HAA Houston Art Alliance.

    Acres Homes was established in 1910. Working class families, laborers, farmers, water front workers, carpenters, domestics, military, and factory workers filled with hope and self-pride began migrating and purchasing property platted for African Americans approximately 10 miles northwest of downtown Houston from developer Alfred A. Wright. The settlement acquired its name Acreage Home from the fact that land was sold by the acre rather than by the lot. The land owners benefited from low taxes, inexpensive land, and an agrarian lifestyle a bit of genteel country with quick and easy access to the city.
