YES IT IS true
James Forten was born to free African American parents in Philadelphia in 1766; he was only nine years old when he heard the newly signed Declaration of Independence read aloud. Before the war ended, he enlisted as a sailor on a privateer ship called the Royal Louis, and he was taken prisoner by the British but later was set free and returned home to Philadelphia. James Forten became an apprentice to a sailmaker and learned the sailmaking business well. His greatest accomplishments as an adult were in the decades prior to the Civil War, when he gained recognition as a successful businessman and courageous abolitionist; his sailmaking business employed black and white laborers who worked side by side at a time when many business enterprises were racially segregated. James Forten used his wealth to redeem many African American from slavery. He died in 1842.
He did not do much fighting. At age 14, he served on a ship, Royal Louis. Soon, the ship was captured by the British and he became a prisoner of war. He was eventually swapped in a POW exchange under the condition that he not fight. He signed on a merchant ship, went to England and worked in a shipyard for more than year and came back to the US after the War ended. He later became active in the anti-slavery movement.
