It's not just about what they fought against (those who would declare any group of individuals to be subhuman and unworthy of social equity).
It's what they stood for - that if we can't find a way to live together we will die alone; if we can't understand that we all come from the same place, we'll never get to where we're going.
It's what soldiers of all sorts are willing to stand for to this day.
Sacrifice isn't about what you give up - it's about what you contribute to.
