The 1st Rhode Island Regiment was a Continental Army regiment from Rhode Island during the American Revolutionary War. Like most regiments of the Continental Army, the unit went through several incarnations and name changes. It became well-known as the "Black Regiment" because, for a time, it had several companies of African American soldiers. It is regarded as the first African-American military regiment, albeit with the misconception that its ranks were exclusively African-American.
