Fort Worth, TX — In a moment of national significance, Pastor Kyev Tatum, Chaplain of the North Texas Buffalo Soldiers and Senior Pastor of New Mount Rose Missionary Baptist Church, has been formally invited to attend the Congressional Gold Medal Ceremony honoring the heroic Harlem Hellfighters, also known as the 369th Infantry Regiment of World War I. The ceremony will take place on Wednesday, September 3, 2025, at Emancipation Hall in the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C.

This prestigious invitation follows Pastor Tatum’s recent participation in another landmark event—the Congressional Gold Medal Ceremony for the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, the historic all-Black and Latina women’s military unit honored on April 29, 2025. His presence at both ceremonies speaks to his deep commitment to honoring unsung African American military pioneers whose legacies have too often been ignored or erased (https://www.facebook.com/share/v/19XwKD6C1e/?mibextid=wwXIfr).



Pastor Tatum’s involvement in the Harlem Hellfighters commemoration traces back to 2017, when he and his team produced “When Hell Froze Over” as part of the World War I Centennial Celebration. The tribute, inspired by the nationally acclaimed 369th Experience, brought renewed attention to the Harlem Hellfighters’ extraordinary bravery and contributions despite the oppressive segregation and racism they endured at home and on the battlefield.



As the visionary founder of Little Miss Six Triple Eight Ambassadors, Camp Buffalo Soldiers and Fort Twenty-Fourth, a faith-driven life skills and leadership campus based at New Mount Rose in Fort Worth’s historic 76104 zip code, Pastor Tatum continues to bridge the gap between history and hope. His work empowers young men and women—dubbed the Young Buffalo Soldiers—to walk in the footsteps of the heroes who came before them while preparing to lead their communities into the future.




This upcoming Congressional ceremony marks more than a historical acknowledgment—it represents a sacred national reckoning. It affirms the Harlem Hellfighters’ legacy as American patriots of the highest order and recognizes those who continue to tell their story today.

NOT GUILTY IN TARRANT COUNTY! Joseph Delancy Stands Victorious with His Grandmother by His Side. Pastor Kyev Tatum, Sr.  https://www.star-telegram.com/news/local/crime/article301585229.html FORT WORTH, TEXAS - When the words “Not Guilty” rang through the courtroom, Shonette “Mama Shon” Hill felt the weight of the world lift from her shoulders. Her grandson, Joseph Delancy, had endured an unimaginable trial—accused of a crime he did not commit, fighting against a system determined to make him a scapegoat. But through it all, Mama Shon stood firm, unwavering in her belief in Joseph’s innocence. With the love only a grandmother can give, she had been his rock, his shield, his fiercest defender. When others turned away, she remained. When doubt crept in, she stood taller. And when the verdict came, she held Joseph close—her faith and love carrying him through the storm. This was not just a victory for Joseph. It was a testament to a grandmother’s unbreakable love. A FIGHT FOR JUSTICE, ...

Aunt Liz the Angel: A Champion for the Six Triple Eight. By Pastor Kyev Tatum, Founding Director, Texas 6888th Project. WASHINGTON, D.C. – On April 29, 2025, inside Emancipation Hall beneath the sacred shadow of the Capitol dome, the soul of America was stirred as our nation finally paused to say “thank you” to the women of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion. That day, wrapped in dignity and destiny, the Congressional Gold Medal was placed upon their legacy. And standing at the center of this divine moment, like a hidden angel sent for such a time as this, was none other than Retired Master Sergeant Elizabeth Anne Helm-Frazier—known across our community, and to the cast of the Tyler Perry film, simply and lovingly as Aunt Liz. Let me say it plain: Aunt Liz is God’s gift to the memory of the Six Triple Eight. When the final living members of the battalion took her in, they said something Master Sgt. never forget: “Liz can’t do no wrong in our book.” And I declare today—neithe...

Bush Presidential Center on the campus of Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas, hosted an extraordinary event honoring the trailblazing women of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, affectionately known as the “Six Triple Eight.” This all-Black, all-female unit of the Women’s Army Corps made history during World War II by clearing a staggering 17 million-piece mail backlog in Europe, ensuring that American service members received their much-needed letters from home. Their dedication and efficiency not only boosted troop morale but also shattered racial and gender barriers of their time. In recognition of their extraordinary service, the battalion was awarded the Congressional Gold Medal in 2022, the highest civilian ho...
