My maternal grandfather served as a Buffalo Soldier in the late 1800's. My mother told us about his service when we were children. I have a degree in History and was never taught about Buffalo Soldiers .But now I'm the president of a Buffalo Soldier Chapter named after my own grandfather. We are teaching all ages about Buffalo Soldiers.
The first road to Sequoia National Park and its Giant Forest was started by members of the Kaweah Cooperative Colony, completed by Col. Charles Young's Ninth Cavalry ('Buffalo Soldiers') in 1903. I live just off the road (North Fork Drive) in Kaweah.
They killed and hunted native's,women and children,commanded by whites..Nowadays they are a special company, criminals ,sentenced to service. Prison or military service.
As a veteran and a black American I have much respect for them,and they paved the way for many other black troops of today. God bless all of them. They had too fight racism along with the enemy ,and they still Continued to serve and serve well.
Theodore "Racist" Roosevelt betrayed these soldiers U.S. Army’s 25th Infantry Regiment when they were stationed in Texas and falsely accused by racist European invaders of crimes and Roosevelt the Racist dishonorably discharged 167 "fools" who serve during the so called Spanish American War. There is no glory in foolishness or continuing to serve an evil race of people who by nature will always reject people who are not like them! History speaks the Truth!
This is great to see this production! The Buffalo Soldiers and their history entered my life when I was in grade school. I had to do a report on General Pershing, and my teacher was a U.S. Marine and served in the Korean War and had an admiration for Pershing, so I knew I'd better get this right. Until researching Pershing, I had never heard of the Buffalo Soldiers, but once I began reading their story I was amazed by the stories of these heroes. Learning about them led to other stories about the histories of other African Americans and their their contributions in our country's move west. Discovering that at least 1/4 of Cowboys were African Americans was news to me and my friends. Names like Jim Beckwourth, Nat Love, and the truly incredible man, Bass Reeves, the real Lone Ranger. This is so well done that it should be required viewing when learning snit the history of western expansion of our country. Thank you, @ReelblackOne, for uploading this awesome program!
Excellent! This actually why ALL American history MUST be taught in our public schools! Black history IS American History and deserves its place in the history books. Better wake up America, don't get caught sleeping on our history!!
Native Americans were the first true ally of Afrikans escaping slavery and these two people joined, married, and fought side-by-side against the evil European occupiers in this country during Andrew Jackson's Indian Removal Act of 1830. Seminoles, Choctaws, Catawtbas, along with countless other Native Tribes. There is no "glory" in participating in the genocide of the Native people of this land (North America)! Given the history of this country and its shameful historic and continued mistreatment of the so-called black race across the globe, one must ask..."How Could Anyone in their Right Mind", a Victim of the Evils of Racism, Slavery, Lynchings, and Genocide, participate in or celebrate the extermination of a race of people across this land on behalf of racist European occupiers who will "never" accept the most "disenfranchised! people on the planet as equals!"
@Boomer Zman They were soldiers, they also fought for the freedom of the slaves. White Confederate soldiers were fighting to keep our people enslaved, white union soldiers were only fighting to preserve the union. Black men fought because it was all could do for his freedom and the freedom of his family. We didn't need an allies. When the Indians attacked a settlement, everyone was wiped out.
THIS IS FOR MY UNCLE MR. B. JONES, THE HORSE THAT NO ONE RODE, THE LINE NO ONE CROSS, AND THE COLOR SPEAKS FOR ITSELF, THE BUFFALO SOLDIERS THE REAL MEN.
I never heard of the buffalo soldiers while I was in school; I respect and honor these great men and woman or women who served at one of the most difficult time in our history. They had to go through so much for their country and the truth of the matter is, we are still going through some of it to this day. It’s a shame our most positive history was kept from us.
Well said, and it continues today. There are those who still want to deny the contributions of Black people in the country. There are those who really want to keep their children ignorant and uninformed about American history (might hurt their feelings or may not like what they read or see). These folks better becareful what they wish for...they might get it...a whole generation of ignorant people in this country.
@@kevinunderdue53 My GGGrnd Mother a Buffalo Creek-NY, FB Seneca Native American served and was paid a salary by the Union Govt as a nurse during the CWar in Indian Territory, Kansas/Oklahoma for the Indian Home Guards (Soldiers). These NA nurses were all expert horse riders, indigenous mountaineer women, and rode with the troops to attend the wounded/dead. After the CW war ended they were highly regarded as " Certified Healers/Doctors," and constantly sought out by all (just like the battle medics of WWI/WWII/Vietnam).
@@kaygibbs8639 Female Buffalo Soldier? Really? Wow wow I would have loved to meet her and listen to her narrate her experiences. Here's to all female Buffalo Soldiers who are never acknowledged🍾🍾🍾
They fought for a country that didn't fight for them- this is why Black history needs to be taught in schools so that black children know about their ancestor and their people so that they know that we have made an abundance of contributions to this raciest country Our buffalo soldiers and Black soldiers' period were the greatest. A lot of people don't know that Bob Marley made a song called Buffalo Solider and it is a beautiful song - listen to it.
They helped oppress and kill Native humans for a country that didn't love them... and to this day Black people in the US military continue helping oppress and kill nonwhite humans overseas for a country that doesn't love them... How deeply can yall continue lying to yourselves to lazily turn this into something to be *_prideful_* about? The USA is truly a disease...
Stop with they fought mantra.They built America! From the Hills of Vermont to the Polynesian Big Island of Hawaii. I knew beloved Prof. William 'Bill' Leckie and his devoted wife. He is missed!
This is priceless. If only we could pull our children's heads out of the garbage they are inundated with, and show them who they are. Then, maybe we could make them stronger. Thank y'all for sharing this documentary.
MLK's integration allowed us to be brainwashed & destroyed from within. They control how & where we live. They control the knowledge ,music & information we receive. After Hitler the jewish didn't integrate with the Germans They were given their own land & billions of dollars till this day.

Buffalo solders who served their Master Theodore Roosevelt during the Spanish American War and afterward these servant fools (167) were dishonorably discharged based on lies by racist Europeans in Texas who falsely accused them of crimes! Last but not least these servants (Buffalo Soldiers) contributed to the genocide of the native people who were the only real allies of enslaved Afrikans who also married and sheltered run-away slaves from evil European slave holders and their "Black" servant soldiers!

I was assigned to the 1st infantry Division Band and had the honor of playing for this dedication. Still have the program brochure from the dedication ceremony and have no intention of getting rid of it. If memory serves me I believe that Commander Philpot also was there and had a lot to do with this dedication coming to fruition. (Just found it) "Martin (Lt Gen) bestowed guest speaker retired Navy Cmdr. Carlton Philpot with the call sign “Relentless 6” in Cavalry tradition for his relentless efforts to keep the memorial project on track." (In addition to Gen Powell)

Great video! When I was a Infantry Scout in the Army National Guard my unit was 90% black and we would reference the Buffalo Soldiers regularly as much of our training was based on Calvary Scout and Ranger tactics.
Cj My grandfather served as a Buffalo Soldier during the late 1800's till the middle 1900's.He helped train the Buffalo Soldier infrantry in Brownsville,Texas before it was all shot up involving a racial dispute .My grandfather's name was George Lasley,Sr.
This is black history but it is more than that, it is American history and our educational system sadly fails us when it comes to teaching us our history, all of our history.
@@michelej9496go take your meds. All you have is negative comments. Are you writing this same crap under WWII post…or any other, besides the few post about African Americans? Miss us all with this bs.
There has been buffalo soldiers at Fort Huachucha in Sierra Vista, Arizona where I used to live. There was even one woman buffalo soldier! I read about it at the museum on base.
First heard of them through Bob Marleys song. Of course, the conversations in halls of power , the Machiavellian machinations, which pitted two oppressed peoples against each 9ther, are yet to be fully exposed. If you read Custer Died for Your Sins by Vin De Loria, The perspective is broadened Entirely understandable why they chose to serve. No shade Just pondering how decisions made long ago, impact us now. Am fascinated by how choices made by powerfully placed people have shaped all of us. May God bless and keep us al. Am truly grateful for all this deeply interesting material. 💯✊❤ Surely the Generals and others in high ranks knew these men would experience disrespectful behaviors from the public. This is why I'm certain there were agendas then as now by using one group against each other. Bless them because it had to be painful to serve a country which failed to even acknowledge their efforts., or respect them enough to allow them to lead their own battalions
How sad, we helped our enemy, to capture our own people, put on reservations. We and the native americans, are Israelites, Judiah, and Gad. We are the same people. Wake up people! I am not, the least proud of this.
CMDR Philpot was my Commanding Officer at NAB Coronado ACU 1 in 1982/1983... being from Tucson in school I learned the typical short history of the Buffalo Soldiers..it wasn't til I was in my mid teens I learned who they were from a soldier at Fort Huachuca..which was a Buffalo Soldier base...why the Injuns gave them that name..my father was black and stationed at Davis Monthan..my mother was Apache from the Chihuahuas who ended up in South Dakota
What, about how they oppressed and murdered other people of color while being sucker enough to do it for people who they themselves were being oppressed by?? Choose something more honorable to be thankful for...
That's totally false and I'm sure many of these men were not happy they were involved in genocide, slaughtering the Native American people at the direction of white masters. Most African people are very naturally peaceful, community-oriented, and spiritual which is why African civilization is the oldest on Earth.
The Buffalo Soldiers were used to fight our brothers the NATIVE PEOPLE. So as a Afro American i for one is not proud of these Soldiers . The Natives were not our Enemy.
I was a combat Medic or called Doc in the 2/12th inf 25th inf div in Nam 69-70 , I am a white guy and very proud to have fought with a lot of black soldiers, I risked my life for any of my Brothers ,White or Black. My dad worked in the oil field We moved around a lot But I did live in the town of Fort Davis, I was 6 yrs old and would go out to the Army Fort Davis and learned about the Solders that fought there were Black men and very highly thought of by most all the people that had relatives that had started the town.
Thank You to All that made this Event & the Installing of the Monuments too Our Glorious though sometimes Neglected Forefathers & Mother's who Created This Great Nation & the Society We Live in. God Know's & We Must Know? That's it Far from Perfection. But Hopefully in The Future it Will, Someday Become it's Dream & A TRUE Reality. Again Thank You ❣️😊❣️.
It is not actually a fact that nobody knew about the Buffalo Soldiers. If anybody out there has ever read 'On the Bloodly Trail of Geronimo' one becomes very familiar with the historic deeds of they soldiers. I'm really liking this documentary.
My question is how come the Gov't hired/enlisted (non citizen Blacks to kill off the Indians (1830s-1880s) and didn't hire/enlist any non citizen Asian-Chinese on the West coast to kill off the West coast Indians? Ah-ha OPIUM! The Gov't kept Asians out of the "genocide game" to keep the govt controlled OPIUM trade flowing freely!!!!

i don't comprehend the affection people have for the Buffalo solders when they helped the U.S. government butcher, displace and decimate the American Indian. Someone please help me understand.
Native American here, I concur, It's beyond heart breaking! History says it was for "Manifest Destiny" (acquiring all the land, mineral rights, oil, gold/silver/copper/water). GREED! European explorers (strategists) were well aware of the historical ancient empire takeovers and America was they're blank canvas :(
They were on the land illegally then too.. they were trying to settle and we moved them back on to Mexico soil. Black Americans are the true indigenous people… we will always be here fighting for what’s ours… this sounds familiar though… history is now repeating itself.
@@silk6516how so? They were following orders, if it's theirs why do the oppressors rule over it? "But were mingled among the heathen, and learned their works." Psalms 106:35 KJV
@@silk6516No Amerindians also known as Red Mongoloids are the original people others including Eskimos And Aleuts that are more closely related to East Asians then they are to Amerindians and phenotypically look closer too also came later then Ameridians as did every other Non Amerindian group you can dish up yeah.
That was like a real opportunity for them at that time to be a real somebody so to speak- making $13 per month, good food and real bed- they don’t accustom to better living then- From then , until now we are always used and tricked into freedom in a America, as Blackmen!
Like we had a choice? We were trying to survive, one way or another. MLK and Malcolm X weren't around to point us in a different direction. To oppose the campaign against the Native tribes would have meant genocidal action against our people as well. It's no stretch of the imagination to see that during that time frame. You wouldn't be around now to show us the error of our ancestors. Think about that before you pass judgment...
African Americans are there own people different from Amerindians so no those are not there own people even if it was still wrong of what happened to The American Indians yeah.
I live in Missoula, MT, where the 25th Inf. Reg. (Black) was stationed at Ft. Missoula. In 1897, 23 men (20 blk enlisted, 1 white officer, & 2 others, a Dr. and Reporter) of the 25th rode from Ft. Missoula, MT to St. Louis, MO on bicycles. It was a 1,900 mile trek.
"Freedom is Life"! Blacks either fought or stayed in slavery "the" only choice, blacks had no say so, no citizenship (maybe Canada) back then. Gov't, if y'all kill the Natives/Savages we'll give you each 80 acres of LAND for payment!
Our contributions are many; however, we still face the same attitudes today as they did then. Even though we are better educated with more involvement with the political process and other fields of progress, we are still not fully respected in a country we love.
We heard about the Buffalo Soldiers in school. I went to school in Montana. I also heard about the Buffalo Soldiers from Indigenous people that we lived with, it was a whole other take than what we learned in school and it wasn't very nice.
What about settling the U S was nice? From the moment in 1619 , in Point Comfort, when white folks first got here. And, started stealing land. What part of the west do you think was settled in a civilized way? What atrocities do you think the white man did?
Evil will never prevail! It just seems like it's winning...you know that confed 🚩 is a symbol of wickedness for one grp of ppl! The 🐃 soldiers saved rotten lives that prob should have died where they stood. Instead lived, to perpetuate HATE IN THE LAND!
What enemies?!!!! They were told by the COLONIZERS that Indigenous PEOPLES were their ENEMIES...NOT TRUE, if African Americans knew then what they know now, they would have known that they were EXPLOITED and should have let those COLONIZERS fight their OWN HORRIFIC BATTLES!!!!
Brave men, who man the best of a situation, less than 5 years out of slavery. They did what they had to do to survive and feel as if they had some dignity and that their lives matter. Some of us,sit behind the comfort of our computers, and look down on these men. But, how many in this century could have survived what these men went through and endured? So, that we can sit here behind our computers and be scornful. But, hey that’s the freedom they fought for.
There was a time when in the midst of The African Experience in The New World; America that The Indigenous People got along fairly Well with Us. When War broke out often between Native American's & Europeans which is because Indigenous People wanted their Ancestral Land's Back. So they Attempted too Deport Europeans back to Europe they left Free Black People and The Slave's Alive. Once the Buffalo Soldier's got underway that relationship changed It is one of the many reasons why The Nation of Islam, or The Black Panther's didn't praise the Buffalo Soldier's accomplishment celebrating Black People Killing The Quote Indian's Brother/Sister you're lost. I just hope we weren't present during The Massacre at Wounded Knee in 1893.
9mins in and I couldn’t watch anymore. I was thinking the same thing you posted. And I always thought they were some brave group of black men fighting against Europeans smh they were fighting Indians for the white man what a shame and disgrace in my opinion
Many Indian tribes enslaved Black Americans and some sided with the Confederacy during the Civil War. There was no mythical "POC" alliance then. The Buffalo men were fighting for THEIR country,
@@kin-green I know The 5 Civilized Nation's ah Chicksaw/The Choctaw/The Cherokee/The Creek & The Seminoles. The Navajoes/Arapaho The Cheyenne Nation did not keep Us as Slaves; in 1863 with full backing from Lincoln Kit Carson and some Soldiers who should have been immersed within The Civil War, corralled The Navajo's locking them up in Internment camp's after marching them off from their Ancestral Land's going long back before Columbus. In 1864, on a Clear day in spite of the fact The Arapaho signed a Peace Treaty (go online look up The Treaties never honored by The White Man) Union Soldiers arrived just like centuries later in obscure village in Vietnam notorious for The Mi Lai massacre in 1968 uncovered reported by the New York Time's in 1969, upon Lt. Calley's Superior Officer's orders to do such a feat so in 1864 the Union Army arrived and slaughtered Them and they've been blunt if 2 Lt's. there at the time hadn't ordered Their Unit too stand down They would be extinct Today. Those same 5 Civilized Nation's did something The White Man has never done Oklahoma became Black Wall Street on account of those 168 Acres given to the now Ex-Slave's by Federal & State Law. Here's the thing The Creek Nation and Seminoles settled on an area that contained something that would of been An Answer to Newly Freed Slaves answer to a Prayer today is classified as an Environmental Disaster but, in 1866 A Gift of Survival and that gift was All The Reparations we nearly had because The Creek & Seminoles lived at a certain place in Oklahoma, after Newly Freed Slaves got Land from Them they settled and became farmer's. An like clock work White People showed up because of a special edict Lincoln signed and got passed during The Civil War it's why I believe The Navajo's were placed in those Concentration Camp's. The Homestead Act- a person could go forth and select a piece of land or property for themselves and Create their Farm's on that Stead. White People realized only Black People and The Indians had Land they began once more pushing The 5 Civilized Nation's on to more Reservations in Oklahoma White Man's real agenda was too send them to The Pacific Ocean and become extinct after watching Ken Burns The U.S. and The Holocaust No, I don't want get too point where, I come off as the way of The Nazi's because it's too easy to become A Monster too fellow human Being's. It's Evil all around. As for Black Farmers they refused too sell their land so White Men being their natural behavior towards people not White in the 1870's-1880's began chasing them off their Reparation's here's why what part of The Land The Creek Nation & The Seminoles it's hard to believe but they did give it to Black People. Oil! Oil was on those Black Farmer's Land that's why White Man chased them off murdered those who wouldn't be pushed out from Their Land, in those days the Oil leases would of been worth Millions today's climate in the Billion's. Remember about The Osage Nation from Kansas they purchased much land from The Cherokee and soon after This same Kansas Nation sat on the richest deposits of Oil field's. They didn't hold back they immediately distributed The newly found wealth amongst The Osage Nation the worst mistake they ever made was marrying White People they grossly underestimated White Man's Racism/ Envy and wanting what someone else has ownership of almost like the notorious King in The Bible Ahab's Spirit was upon Them in that Era. The Osage were reduced by White Establishment as Children who couldn't handle their Wealth so they would handle their Wealth for em. Today 2023 they no longer have the Oil because The American Government which is how America pretty much got started in the first place has complete control of that oil on the Osage Nation's Reservations which The Osage legally bought from The Cherokee. They stopped receiving The money and this is why our Infamy go hand and hand with our Triumphs that's not a good thing. We as Black People would be in the same spot accept they already stole it in the late 1800s. Santa Ana 1st President of Mexico tried too get Us by Us I mean African American's Land to when Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Utah & Wyoming? we're apart of Mexico. After Santa Ana not only Abolished All Slavery in Mexico, but African's were included He even outlawed The Slave Ship's coming to Mexico and that is why Texas Rising which led too The Mexican War 1836-1842 came too be upon Santa Ana abolishing Slavery it meant Slave Owners were forced to give up owning Human Being's and that's why everybody and their White daddy arrived in Texas to Set it Free gain Independence from Tyrannical Santa Ana. Wow, it's getting late so I'll need to go now so great swapping Comments over history with you!
@@phillipx6046 I'm not giving those 5 Nation's a free pass they did own our Grandfather's and Grandmother's but as a Record They Do stand as the only People to Give after a 1866 Treaty with Us 168 Acres and for those Freed Slaves owned by The Creek Nation and The Seminoles bestowing Land with Oil on it That's the very essence of Reparation's. White Man as usual took it all away and later burned Black Wall Street down too The Ground stealing from Black People what they had earned.

Why doesn't someone do a documentary on how many black soldiers fought and died in our wars especially in vnam and how many died and was wounded no one will never do it I have been waiting a long time I'm white and some of my best friends in and out of the service are black someone please do it
I wouldn't mind if "The Buffalo Soldiers" oppressed The Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Seminole, And Creek tribes as those were the ones that were part of "The Five Civilized Tribes" but instead they attacked Natives that were not part of any of those clans they instead attacked Apaches, Comanches, And other Non "Five Civilized Tribes" members yeah.

this came out 30 years ago, and a movie about it at some point . i think before this. this isn't anything new. It's a bit outdated, especially since it IS taught in school!
This is really horrible. What about the souls of the exterminated Native Americans. This documentary and the admirers are totally dishonest and ignore the slaughters carried out by this extermination unit.
Remember, in this era Native Americans (all Indian tribes west of the Old Man River- Miss) were still defending their soverign lands/families and the Gov't wanted Hispanics (Mexico-Tex-Cali) & ALL Indians exterminated to gain 100% territorial possession. Native American(s) were only considered "caveman savages, not people.

This is more than a BEAUTIFUL Movie. It explains a lot of them.
Thank You Gentlemen.
As a veteran and a black American I have much respect for them,and they paved the way for many other black troops of today. God bless all of them. They had too fight racism along with the enemy ,and they still Continued to serve and serve well.
Theodore "Racist" Roosevelt betrayed these soldiers U.S. Army’s 25th Infantry Regiment when they were stationed in Texas and falsely accused by racist European invaders of crimes and Roosevelt the Racist dishonorably discharged 167 "fools" who serve during the so called Spanish American War. There is no glory in foolishness or continuing to serve an evil race of people who by nature will always reject people who are not like them! History speaks the Truth!

This is great to see this production!
The Buffalo Soldiers and their history entered my life when I was in grade school.
I had to do a report on General Pershing, and my teacher was a U.S. Marine and served in the Korean War and had an admiration for Pershing, so I knew I'd better get this right.
Until researching Pershing, I had never heard of the Buffalo Soldiers, but once I began reading their story I was amazed by the stories of these heroes.
Learning about them led to other stories about the histories of other African Americans and their their contributions in our country's move west.
Discovering that at least 1/4 of Cowboys were African Americans was news to me and my friends.
Names like Jim Beckwourth, Nat Love, and the truly incredible man, Bass Reeves, the real Lone Ranger.
This is so well done that it should be required viewing when learning snit the history of western expansion of our country.

@Boomer Zman They were soldiers, they also fought for the freedom of the slaves. White Confederate soldiers were fighting to keep our people enslaved, white union soldiers were only fighting to preserve the union. Black men fought because it was all could do for his freedom and the freedom of his family. We didn't need an allies. When the Indians attacked a settlement, everyone was wiped out.

Very insightful! Thank you very much for sharing such content for the community, they never want to tell the whole truth during his-tory.
Respect ✊🏾
All the years I spent in school I was never knew about the Buffalo soldiers we need real black history not just MLK day.
I never heard of the buffalo soldiers while I was in school; I respect and honor these great men and woman or women who served at one of the most difficult time in our history. They had to go through so much for their country and the truth of the matter is, we are still going through some of it to this day. It’s a shame our most positive history was kept from us.
Yes there was only one woman her name was Cathay Williams
She disguised herself as a man because women could not serve in the military in those days
Bob Marley made a wonderful song called Buffalo Soilder- listen to it
Well said, and it continues today. There are those who still want to deny the contributions of Black people in the country. There are those who really want to keep their children ignorant and uninformed about American history (might hurt their feelings or may not like what they read or see). These folks better becareful what they wish for...they might get it...a whole generation of ignorant people in this country.
@@kevinunderdue53 My GGGrnd Mother a Buffalo Creek-NY, FB Seneca Native American served and was paid a salary by the Union Govt as a nurse during the CWar in Indian Territory, Kansas/Oklahoma for the Indian Home Guards (Soldiers). These NA nurses were all expert horse riders, indigenous mountaineer women, and rode with the troops to attend the wounded/dead. After the CW war ended they were highly regarded as " Certified Healers/Doctors," and constantly sought out by all (just like the battle medics of WWI/WWII/Vietnam).
My great great grand father was a Buffalo soldier Moses Williams proud of him
Do you know if he was akin to Cathay Williams the female Buffalo Soldier?
@@kaygibbs8639 Female Buffalo Soldier? Really? Wow wow I would have loved to meet her and listen to her narrate her experiences. Here's to all female Buffalo Soldiers who are never acknowledged🍾🍾🍾
@@mangoyacho Google "Cathay Williams" only Black American Buffalo Soldier
They fought for a country that didn't fight for them- this is why Black history needs to be taught in schools so that black children know about their ancestor and their people so that they know that we have made an abundance of contributions to this raciest country Our buffalo soldiers and Black soldiers' period were the greatest. A lot of people don't know that Bob Marley made a song called Buffalo Solider and it is a beautiful song - listen to it.
They helped oppress and kill Native humans for a country that didn't love them... and to this day Black people in the US military continue helping oppress and kill nonwhite humans overseas for a country that doesn't love them... How deeply can yall continue lying to yourselves to lazily turn this into something to be *_prideful_* about? The USA is truly a disease...
Which makes them dumb
Stop with they fought mantra.They built America! From the Hills of Vermont to the Polynesian Big Island of Hawaii.

MLK's integration allowed us to be brainwashed & destroyed from within. They control how & where we live. They control the knowledge ,music & information we receive. After Hitler the jewish didn't integrate with the Germans They were given their own land & billions of dollars till this day.
They should've helped the indians fight their common enemy instead of helping their slave masters killing inocent native American.

Still have the program brochure from the dedication ceremony and have no intention of getting rid of it. If memory serves me I believe that Commander Philpot also was there and had a lot to do with this dedication coming to fruition. (Just found it) "Martin (Lt Gen) bestowed guest speaker retired Navy Cmdr. Carlton Philpot with the call sign “Relentless 6” in Cavalry tradition for his relentless efforts to keep the memorial project on track." (In addition to Gen Powell)

The first time I have ever heard of buffalo soldiers, was bob marley’s song.😊
He expressed regret for the song when he later learned that the Buffalo Soldiers were used by white masters to exterminate the Native Americans fyi.
Bob Marley expressed great regret for the song after he learned the details of what these unfortunate men were used.

The road was long and stubborn and i truly admire those who had the courage to pave the way for a better America
Great video! When I was a Infantry Scout in the Army National Guard my unit was 90% black and we would reference the Buffalo Soldiers regularly as much of our training was based on Calvary Scout and Ranger tactics.

This is black history but it is more than that, it is American history and our educational system sadly fails us when it comes to teaching us our history, all of our history.

There has been buffalo soldiers at Fort Huachucha in Sierra Vista, Arizona where I used to live. There was even one woman buffalo soldier! I read about it at the museum on base.
First heard of them through Bob Marleys song.
Of course, the conversations in halls of power , the Machiavellian machinations, which pitted two oppressed peoples against each 9ther, are yet to be fully exposed.
If you read Custer Died for Your Sins by Vin De Loria,
The perspective is broadened
Entirely understandable why they chose to serve.
No shade
Just pondering how decisions made long ago, impact us now.
Am fascinated by how choices made by powerfully placed people have shaped all of us.
May God bless and keep us al.
Am truly grateful for all this deeply interesting material.

Surely the Generals and others in high ranks knew these men would experience disrespectful behaviors from the public.
This is why I'm certain there were agendas then as now by using one group against each other.
Bless them because it had to be painful to serve a country which failed to even acknowledge their efforts., or respect them enough to allow them to lead their own battalions
Bob Marley is an ignorant famous Jamaican none talking patwa.
Yep they were a mobile extermination unit directed by white masters against the Native Americans.
Buffalo. soldiers were amazing great fighters
How sad, we helped our enemy, to capture our own people, put on reservations. We and the

CMDR Philpot was my Commanding Officer at NAB Coronado ACU 1 in 1982/1983... being from Tucson in school I learned the typical short history of the Buffalo Soldiers..it wasn't til I was in my mid teens I learned who they were from a soldier at Fort Huachuca..which was a Buffalo Soldier base...why the Injuns gave them that name..my father was black and stationed at Davis Monthan..my mother was Apache from the Chihuahuas who ended up in South Dakota

That's totally false and I'm sure many of these men were not happy they were involved in genocide, slaughtering the Native American people at the direction of white masters. Most African people are very naturally peaceful, community-oriented, and spiritual which is why African civilization is the oldest on Earth.
The Buffalo Soldiers were used to fight our brothers the NATIVE PEOPLE. So as a Afro American i for one is not proud of these Soldiers . The Natives were not our Enemy.
In most cases the natives were us. They ran their own people off their land.
I was a combat Medic or called Doc in the 2/12th inf 25th inf div in Nam 69-70 , I am a white guy and very proud to have fought with a lot of black soldiers, I risked my life for any of my Brothers ,White or Black. My dad worked in the oil field We moved around a lot But I did live in the town of Fort Davis, I was 6 yrs old and would go out to the Army Fort Davis and learned about the Solders that fought there were Black men and very highly thought of by most all the people that had relatives that had started the town.

That's it Far from Perfection. But Hopefully in The Future it Will, Someday Become it's Dream & A TRUE Reality. Again Thank You ❣️😊❣️.
It is not actually a fact that nobody knew about the Buffalo Soldiers. If anybody out there has ever read 'On the Bloodly Trail of Geronimo' one becomes very familiar with the historic deeds of they soldiers. I'm really liking this documentary.
Should be watched more
This was really good
And they thought they were fighting for self? But history tells the real story😇📖💞🌍
My question is how come the Gov't hired/enlisted (non citizen Blacks to kill off the Indians (1830s-1880s) and didn't hire/enlist any non citizen Asian-Chinese on the West coast to kill off the West coast Indians? Ah-ha OPIUM! The Gov't kept Asians out of the "genocide game" to keep the govt controlled OPIUM trade flowing freely!!!!
Shame Shame Shame on the United States of America…
THANKS FOR THE INFO.
The first road to Sequoia National Park and its _Giant Forest_ was started by members of the Kaweah Cooperative Colony, completed by Col. Charles Young's Ninth Cavalry ('Buffalo Soldiers') in 1903.
I live just off the road (North Fork Drive) in Kaweah.
i don't comprehend the affection people have for the Buffalo solders when they helped the U.S. government butcher, displace and decimate the American Indian. Someone please help me understand.
Native American here, I concur, It's beyond heart breaking! History says it was for "Manifest Destiny" (acquiring all the land, mineral rights, oil, gold/silver/copper/water). GREED! European explorers (strategists) were well aware of the historical ancient empire takeovers and America was they're blank canvas :(
They were on the land illegally then too.. they were trying to settle and we moved them back on to Mexico soil. Black Americans are the true indigenous people… we will always be here fighting for what’s ours… this sounds familiar though… history is now repeating itself.
@@silk6516how so? They were following orders, if it's theirs why do the oppressors rule over it?
"But were mingled among the heathen, and learned their works." Psalms 106:35 KJV
@@silk6516No Amerindians also known as Red Mongoloids are the original people others including Eskimos And Aleuts that are more closely related to East Asians then they are to Amerindians and phenotypically look closer too also came later then Ameridians as did every other Non Amerindian group you can dish up yeah.
That was like a real opportunity for them at that time to be a real somebody so to speak- making $13 per month, good food and real bed- they don’t accustom to better living then- From then , until now we are always used and tricked into freedom in a America, as Blackmen!
Fighting their own ppl
Like we had a choice? We were trying to survive, one way or another. MLK and Malcolm X weren't around to point us in a different direction. To oppose the campaign against the Native tribes would have meant genocidal action against our people as well. It's no stretch of the imagination to see that during that time frame. You wouldn't be around now to show us the error of our ancestors. Think about that before you pass judgment...
What was the alternative?
African Americans are there own people different from Amerindians so no those are not there own people even if it was still wrong of what happened to The American Indians yeah.
.... Like "Bloods & Crisps" Then...
These brave black buffalo soliders should have been recognised for Thier heroic deeds
I live in Missoula, MT, where the 25th Inf. Reg. (Black) was stationed at Ft. Missoula. In 1897, 23 men (20 blk enlisted, 1 white officer, & 2 others, a Dr. and Reporter) of the 25th rode from Ft. Missoula, MT to St. Louis, MO on bicycles. It was a 1,900 mile trek.
Thank you 🤩🤩💖
Could Be A Hollywood Blockbuster..
I don’t understand how/why we would fight for a nation that refused to recognize us as citizens.
The Republicans did recognize Blacks as citizens. It was Democrats that passed Jim Crow laws and wanted to deny rights to blacks.
"Freedom is Life"! Blacks either fought or stayed in slavery "the" only choice, blacks had no say so, no citizenship (maybe Canada) back then. Gov't, if y'all kill the Natives/Savages we'll give you each 80 acres of LAND for payment!
OH FOR GOT TO PASS IT ON THE 92, LIVES ON THROUGH THE FAMILIES OF THESE MEN
Our contributions are many; however, we still face the same attitudes today as they did then. Even though we are better educated with more involvement with the political process and other fields of progress, we are still not fully respected in a country we love.
There is a TON of History at the Buffalo Soldier Museum in Downtown Houston

The words of a non Black person who doesn't want to pay Blacks Reparations
Amazing how still till this present day most people still haven't figured out that the Buffalo 🐃 🦬 soldiers were the American Indian too!!
American Indians that made deals with Europeans
In other words, They were STRONG MEN!
We heard about the Buffalo Soldiers in school. I went to school in Montana. I also heard about the Buffalo Soldiers from Indigenous people that we lived with, it was a whole other take than what we learned in school and it wasn't very nice.
What about settling the U S was nice? From the moment in 1619 , in Point Comfort, when white folks first got here. And, started stealing land. What part of the west do you think was settled in a civilized way? What atrocities do you think the white man did?

One day the native Americans may want to tear down this statue the way BLM wants to tear down Confederate statues and I can't blame them.
Wishful thinking for the worst.
Evil will never prevail! It just seems like it's winning...you know that confed 🚩 is a symbol of wickedness for one grp of ppl!
The 🐃 soldiers saved rotten lives that prob should have died where they stood. Instead lived, to perpetuate HATE IN THE LAND!
they fought in behalf of their enemies.
What enemies?!!!! They were told by the COLONIZERS that Indigenous PEOPLES were their ENEMIES...NOT TRUE, if African Americans knew then what they know now, they would have known that they were EXPLOITED and should have let those COLONIZERS fight their OWN HORRIFIC BATTLES!!!!
They fought for THE AMERICA THAT ALL TRUE AMERICANS ARE STILL TRYING TO BUILD, A COLORBLIND, MERIT-BASED SOCIETY!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
They used black people from then till today 🛑
One note. The Medal of Honor was not the highest award. It was, I believe, the only award.
Brave men, who man the best of a situation, less than 5 years out of slavery. They did what they had to do to survive and feel as if they had some dignity and that their lives matter. Some of us,sit behind the comfort of our computers, and look down on these men. But, how many in this century could have survived what these men went through and endured? So, that we can sit here behind our computers and be scornful. But, hey that’s the freedom they fought for.
Cj There was a story written about this in Ebony Magazine about this incident, it appeared in the 1970's edition.
I also served as a Buffalo Soldier at Fort Hood, TX 1/10 Calvary 1st Calvary Division
There was a time when in the midst of The African Experience in The New World; America that The Indigenous People got along fairly Well with Us.
When War broke out often between Native American's & Europeans which is because Indigenous People wanted their Ancestral Land's Back.
So they Attempted too Deport Europeans back to Europe they left Free Black People and The Slave's Alive.
Once the Buffalo Soldier's got underway that relationship changed It is one of the many reasons why The Nation of Islam, or The Black Panther's didn't praise the Buffalo Soldier's accomplishment celebrating Black People Killing The Quote Indian's Brother/Sister you're lost.
I just hope we weren't present during The Massacre at Wounded Knee in 1893.
If your insinuation is that “black” people in America are from Africa your wrong. The American/Indian is the negro we ain’t no Africans
9mins in and I couldn’t watch anymore. I was thinking the same thing you posted. And I always thought they were some brave group of black men fighting against Europeans smh they were fighting Indians for the white man what a shame and disgrace in my opinion
Many Indian tribes enslaved Black Americans and some sided with the Confederacy during the Civil War. There was no mythical "POC" alliance then. The Buffalo men were fighting for THEIR country,
@@kin-green I know The 5 Civilized Nation's ah Chicksaw/The Choctaw/The Cherokee/The Creek & The Seminoles.
The Navajoes/Arapaho The Cheyenne Nation did not keep Us as Slaves; in 1863 with full backing from Lincoln Kit Carson and some Soldiers who should have been immersed within The Civil War, corralled The Navajo's locking them up in Internment camp's after marching them off from their Ancestral Land's going long back before Columbus.
In 1864, on a Clear day in spite of the fact The Arapaho signed a Peace Treaty (go online look up The Treaties never honored by The White Man) Union Soldiers arrived just like centuries later in obscure village in Vietnam notorious for The Mi Lai massacre in 1968 uncovered reported by the New York Time's in 1969, upon
Lt. Calley's Superior Officer's orders to do such a feat so in 1864 the Union Army arrived and slaughtered Them and they've been blunt if 2 Lt's. there at the time hadn't ordered Their Unit too stand down They would be extinct Today.
Those same 5 Civilized Nation's did something The White Man has never done Oklahoma became Black Wall Street on account of those 168 Acres given to the now Ex-Slave's by Federal & State Law.
Here's the thing The Creek Nation and Seminoles settled on an area that contained something that would of been An Answer to Newly Freed Slaves answer to a Prayer today is classified as an Environmental Disaster but, in 1866 A Gift of Survival and that gift was All The Reparations we nearly had because The Creek & Seminoles lived at a certain place in Oklahoma, after Newly Freed Slaves got Land from Them they settled and became farmer's.
An like clock work White People showed up because of a special edict Lincoln signed and got passed during The Civil War it's why I believe The Navajo's were placed in those Concentration Camp's.
The Homestead Act- a person could go forth and select a piece of land or property for themselves and Create their Farm's on that Stead.
White People realized only Black People and The Indians had Land they began once more pushing The 5 Civilized Nation's on to more Reservations in Oklahoma White Man's real agenda was too send them to The Pacific Ocean and become extinct after watching Ken Burns The U.S. and The Holocaust No, I don't want get too point where, I come off as the way of The Nazi's because it's too easy to become A Monster too fellow human Being's.
It's Evil all around.
As for Black Farmers they refused too sell their land so White Men being their natural behavior towards people not White in the 1870's-1880's began chasing them off their Reparation's here's why what part of The Land
The Creek Nation & The Seminoles it's hard to believe but they did give it to Black People.
Oil! Oil was on those Black Farmer's Land that's why White Man chased them off murdered those who wouldn't be pushed out from Their Land, in those days the Oil leases would of been worth Millions today's climate in the Billion's.
Remember about The Osage Nation from Kansas they purchased much land from The Cherokee and soon after This same Kansas Nation sat on the richest deposits of Oil field's.
They didn't hold back they immediately distributed The newly found wealth amongst The Osage Nation the worst mistake they ever made was marrying White People they grossly underestimated White Man's Racism/ Envy and wanting what someone else has ownership of almost like the notorious King in The Bible Ahab's Spirit was upon Them in that Era.
The Osage were reduced by White Establishment as Children who couldn't handle their Wealth so they would handle their Wealth for em.
Today 2023 they no longer have the Oil because The American Government which is how America pretty much got started in the first place has complete control of that oil on the Osage Nation's Reservations which The Osage legally bought from The Cherokee. They stopped receiving The money and this is why our Infamy go hand and hand with our Triumphs that's not a good thing.
We as Black People would be in the same spot accept they already stole it in the late 1800s.
Santa Ana 1st President of Mexico tried too get Us by Us I mean African American's Land to when Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Utah & Wyoming? we're apart of Mexico.
After Santa Ana not only Abolished All Slavery in Mexico, but African's were included He even outlawed The Slave Ship's coming to Mexico and that is why Texas Rising which led too The Mexican War 1836-1842 came too be upon Santa Ana abolishing Slavery it meant Slave Owners were forced to give up owning Human Being's and that's why everybody and their White daddy arrived in Texas to Set it Free gain Independence from Tyrannical Santa Ana.
Wow, it's getting late so I'll need to go now so great swapping Comments over history with you!
@@phillipx6046 I'm not giving those 5 Nation's a free pass they did own our Grandfather's and Grandmother's but as a Record They Do stand as the only People to Give after a 1866 Treaty with Us 168 Acres and for those Freed Slaves owned by The Creek Nation and The Seminoles bestowing Land with Oil on it That's the very essence of Reparation's.
White Man as usual took it all away and later burned Black Wall Street down too The Ground stealing from Black People what they had earned.

Dana Calloway? Hey Dane, got any relatives Pamunkey, Yamasee. I am KUNIA!. What African tribe did your people ascend from according to your DNA SWAB TEST?
@@kuniakai There is no way you can tell what part of Africa your ancestors originate from. We are the lost tribes, our history wiped out, cursed as scriptures stated it, because Blacks were heavy and still are into voodoo and idolatry, astrology, trying to contact ancestors through sorcery and praying. The scriptures state we are not to try to contact the dead. The dead can do nothing for you, their fate is sealed and their place is in Heaven or Hell until judgement day. Those in Heaven cannot hear your prayers, nor act upon them if they could. Those in Hell can hear your prayers, but can do absolutely nothing about it.
What gains, wealth, land, language, do you gain, even if your ancestors were traced back to Africa ❓🤌🏾 It's the past. What benefit does being the descendant of George Washington gain his descendants ❓It's a false sense of hope, a longing to belong, when you should be longing to belong to Jesus Christ. That goes for me too.
To come to closure, you are aboriginal to and Native to Africa, 400 plus years ago.
@@Keepskatin I'm not Lost I know my tribes and I am not from AFRICA. Atlantis has risen and fallen several times. Try the SUMERIAN WRITINGS. the new testament was written with accepting BLACK SLAVERY as it's soul purpose by PISO a swarthy convert in Rome. Guess his dad's name, JOSEPHUS.
Try Kurimeo Ahau and here it from the conquistadors. Piso series 1-6. We are a matriarchal people.
Native Americans were the first true ally of Afrikans escaping slavery and these two people joined, married, and fought side-by-side against the evil European occupiers in this country during Andrew Jackson's Indian Removal Act of 1830. Seminoles, Choctaws, Catawtbas, along with countless other Native Tribes. There is no "glory" in participating in the genocide of the Native people of this land (North America)! Given the history of this country and its shameful historic and continued mistreatment of the so-called black race across the globe, one must ask..."How Could Anyone in their Right Mind", a Victim of the Evils of Racism, Slavery, Lynchings, and Genocide, participate in or celebrate the extermination of a race of people across this land on behalf of racist European occupiers who will "never" accept the most "disenfranchised! people on the planet as equals!"
Helped sell out the Indians ...Good Work 👍👍👍
Why did it have to be that way.? 🔥
Today's people don't even know who the Buffalo soldiers are thus should be taught in history books. It's a same that the Buffalo soldiers should be told .. not only black salvage there where white Indians Mexican salvage too

I wouldn't mind if "The Buffalo Soldiers" oppressed The Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Seminole, And Creek tribes as those were the ones that were part of "The Five Civilized Tribes" but instead they attacked Natives that were not part of any of those clans they instead attacked Apaches, Comanches, And other Non "Five Civilized Tribes" members yeah.
Thank you! I thought the same thing. And the Cherokees in the east are still racist today, just a few years ago they had a vote that passed overwhelmingly to kick the Black members out of the tribe.

Just because transplanted Europeans called them the FCT?
this came out 30 years ago, and a movie about it at some point . i think before this. this isn't anything new. It's a bit outdated, especially since it IS taught in school!
This is really horrible. What about the souls of the exterminated Native Americans. This documentary and the admirers are totally dishonest and ignore the slaughters carried out by this extermination unit.
Remember, in this era Native Americans (all Indian tribes west of the Old Man River- Miss) were still defending their soverign lands/families and the Gov't wanted Hispanics (Mexico-Tex-Cali) & ALL Indians exterminated to gain 100% territorial possession. Native American(s) were only considered "caveman savages, not people.
