- The Lewis & Clark Expedition was a pivotal moment in American history. But the story of York, a man enslaved to William Clark and comrade on this journey, has been obscured by omission and stereotype.

I am the Narrator on this project. This was such an honor to be part of this Journey!😇👊🏾☝🏾
Thank you
👏👏👏🤎
Thank you!
Ditto appreciation from Montana.
Awesome
Because he wanted to be with his wife... As any man should have. You decide to want bad for him??? Disgusting!
Watching after the " lady" defaced a statue of him. His story is inspiring. Why aren't we teaching children about him?
Me too😀
This is the first time I’ve ever heard of him
@@justred5164 ditto
@@lynns4426 my parents are from Jim Crow south and I asked them if they knew anything about any massacres that occurred during their time and they said no. Not even word of mouth. Nobody ever said anything about it….not knowing what happened to our people will cause a false sense of security that will get a person hurt or killed….this has gone on way too long…we have to teach and become more informed about our people.
Me too its was a great learning experience
It's sad how they just chose to erase an individual because they didn't want them to be significant!
And still TO THIS DAYYYYY!
you all probably dont care at all but does anyone know of a way to get back into an instagram account..?
I stupidly lost the login password. I would appreciate any help you can give me!
@Nicholas Ethan instablaster =)
The truth can only be hidden for so long
My god as a Black American this shit is always magically overlooked.
This is my relative ! Thank you so much for sharing this ❤️
I recently took a trip to Fort Clatsop and Desperation Point in the PNW and York was barely mentioned at the museums. It led me to search for more info and I found this doc.
Thank you I really enjoyed learning about York great video
Excellent. Thank you for putting this together an sharing it. God bless.
Very nice. I love the reinactment scenes.
When did York get time to master several dialects of Native American tongues, If all he was was a man servant/slave?
Natives helped slaves in the underground railroad. There were black chiefs believe it or not. slaves have integrated in gene pool descendents to come with natives, Italians, Irish, and a few polish because all were depicted as inferior to the forces to be
Natives also were slave masters in Oklahoma
Thank you for sharing this story 🛐I look at this story showing the faithfulnessof God -45 has the same characteristics of William Clark, his Pride would not let him accept the fact that a black man (York) who saved his life (Clatk) deserved anything. Definition of 45’s black jobs, teach them that whites are supremely better. Three men William Clark, Washington Irving & Zenas Leonard left documented historstrial information, they never imagined Slavery would end. This is evident this is not a Christian Nation! Maybe we have some Christian values Nothing like that of Jesus Christ (Matthew 5, 6&7)💙🛐Praise God for helping us learn to be more like Jesus Christ ❗🛐💙☦️
Jidion brought me here
From what I’ve read York was never freed. He was sold away from his family but who really knows
Congratulations on this wonderful video discussion about York.

Most of the other members are just as unknown as York - even though they are white.
My understanding is that he was a slave only in the America .... once they crossed over the Mississippi River, he was no longer a slave but a free man and was treated as such --- same with the 16 year old pregnant Native American woman who helped the expedition and even saved lives and journals; and the men even helped raised her son "Pomp"! It's actually a beautiful story of our roots and relationships between men/women/black/white/brown/children....
Worst part .... Is that could happen ever
Great job !!
Not bad.
I am a relative of William clark and I want to believe York was a frontiersman like all others York was a wonderful man I wish I could contact his ancestors and get to know there family history 😀
My family are said to be descendants of York and have been trying to locate descendants of William Clark
💪🦾💪🦾💪🦾💪🦾💪🦾💪🙏🙏🙏
Sacagawea was also given "short shrift" in Lewis & Clark's journals as well as ignored by Congress when the "Corp of Discovery" finally returned back east.
Very good and thoroughly enjoyed .but now you should look at Stefan Milosevic s York !
Naming the river education center at Green Anchors after him.
Ahh the biggest argument between Missouri and Oregon. Remember it started in Missouri it ended in Oregon. same with Lindbergh
Lewis clark and York great explorers of America
There you go ✌️🐕🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾
Thank you. Very well done.
