- [cc] The Buffalo Soldiers helped settle the west but for many years the contributions of these African-American soldiers were largely overlooked. Meet one man who is determined to teach this often forgotten chapter of history to today's eager students. For more info. on Texas Buffalo Soldiers, see www.tpwd.state.tx.us/learning/...
Coming from the military family that I did, I grew up hearing about the Buffalo Soldiers. My Dad was apart of the Triple Nickels, the first Black Paratroopers and like the Buffalo Soldiers, their stories too went untold. The stories of the Tuskegee Airmen and now the Red Tails have been told but there are more stories yet shared. Thank you for your works.
Ok
I served at Camp Clinton Greaves, DMZ Korea, 79 to 81 with 1st Bn, 9th Infantry (MANCHU). Cpl Greaves was one of the greatest Buffalo soldiers to ever live, earning the MOH! I am proud to have served at a camp named in his honor. Sadly, he died young, at just 51 from heart disease in Ohio. He lay in an unmarked grave for 92 years until the MOH Society heard about it, and placed a white Granite Govt marker on his grave. Keep Up the awesome work Sir, you do the Buffalo Soldiers proud by teaching children, especially black children, about the history of these incredibly brave, honorable men!
I would make sure to record that show, for sure, LOL!
Dale Meadows I’ve learned more from this video and you then was taught to me in history classes. Finding out about all these hidden truths is astounding but stings.
Buffalo soldiers, that legacy will never die
There are so many more stories not yet told!
This is great! My husband is a Payne, a relative of Isaac Payne, a Black Seminole Scout, who received the Medal of Honor during an encounter near the Pecos River in 1875. I love hearing about this rich history! Please keep doing what you are doing!
My grandfather was a Buffalo Soldier..hopefully they can continue this history.
Naturally Speaking Karen That makes him a ISRAELITE from the mighty tribe of Judah! ALL PRAISES TO THE MOST HIGH!!
Genesis 49:8-10
[8]Judah, thou art he whom thy brethren shall praise: thy hand shall be in the neck of thine enemies; thy father's children shall bow down before thee.
[9]Judah is a lion's whelp: from the prey, my son, thou art gone up: he stooped down, he couched as a lion, and as an old lion; who shall rouse him up?
[10]The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be.
Deuteronomy 28:68
[68]And the LORD shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by the way whereof I spake unto thee, Thou shalt see it no more again: and there ye shall be sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy you.

Jay Blacq why?
Great video! I've been showing this to my students for 5-6 years.
There were movies made about them . . Woody Strode as "Sgt Rutlidge "the name of movie. and Danny Gluber in movie called "Buffalo Soldiers"
Very nicely done. Bravo. Thanks for helping to spread the message that American history belongs to everyone. And is there for all to be proud.
Now this is something i can watch
thanks so much, from my reading of the Seminoles, the talent & skill they had matched up with the Buffalo Soldiers, I had a gut feeling. I appreciate this so much friend.
Cj I am the granddaughter of this Buffalo Soldier & I live in Texas.He was my maternal grandfather; his name was George Lasley,Sr.RIP my beloved grand papa with all your beloved brothers & sisters who served with you.
Thanks for the knowledge!
Excellent video. Informative. Thanks for sharing on UA-cam.
young man,throw back them shoulders and hold your head proud for the 89 african american soldiers awarded our country's highest military honor the Medal of Honor. 332 air squadron awarded the Gold Medal of honor. the ww1 reg,93rd inf div awarded France's highest militar honor,571 Crois De Guerre their equivilent of our own Medal of Honor as well as TWO U.S. Medals of Honor. your military history goes back to the 1600's about which I am compiling a book
The story of the Triple Nickels is only forgotten if you fail to speak about it or them. You have a responsibility to research and share with the world. Awakening the memory began with you. Share with us
Thank you for this video
Cj I very much enjoy this video about the Buffalo Soldier. My grandfather was a Buffalo Soldier.He served as one from the late 1800s through the early 1900's.When Brownsville Texas was all shot up involving the Buffalo Soldiers over a racial incident there,my grandfather was the one who helped train those calvary of men.Theree was an article in Ebony Magazine about this incident in the 1970's.
Beautiful History
Salute to you Ken.
Great story should have learned in school. It should be in school books today instead of all the turmoil be pushed
black history 365...!
Schools concentration on DEI, instead of positive accomplishments .
5:54...says it all
Thank God for the Buffalo soldiers!!
thank you for this post
Wonderful, Wonderful, Wonderful..
I Liked Your Comment
Assimilation was the prize they kept their eyes upon which is still important today.
And they did it the right way; proving they could be a very positive influence on others and could hold their head up high and serve their new country in a positive way. . Some where along they way, that all changed. Too bad.
900 hundred VS 200 hundred Buffalo soldiers those poor Indians never had a chance salute to both of there memoirs
Now you've discovered this.
Listen to Bob Marley ( Buffalo soldiers )
75% of the "cowboys" were black, and 79% of whalers were black.
25%*
happy black history day 365...!!!
great vid
Could be that the 9th and 10th were regulars-at a time when the pols couldn't praise the less expensive volunteers any higher!
sad, the real irony is that ( people ) have allowed themselves to be reduced to a color. were all human beings, not colors
I don’t know when we will reject these labels of color and just call ourselves human
Buffalo Soldiers are the equivalent of the Five Civilized Tribes
“We can, we will.”
i met oonnnee!!! :D go buffalo soldiers
Cj 💯♥️♥️💯

It a shame they took part in the Native American Genocide.
Marik
The Buffalo Soldiers are the native Americans, they were fighting for their land.
@@yudahel9821 that is 100% INCORRECT. did u even watch the video...?
sadly, the enemy of our enemies were our brothers...! what is the reward??
Dreadlock Rasta!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Today's Black American have been too brainwashed to learn, respect, and appreciate this history. Salute to the bravery of my ancestors the Buffalo Soldiers.
MikeWillSaved bravery? how? by helping the white man force ppl off their land?
John Davenport I can't argue with that. Not only this country but all over the world since the beginning ppl have fought over land. So you're definitely right. I was using E/I when I made that comment. I don't like the fact that certain things are being celebrated, especially me being a black man and seeing my race aide the oppressors at that time to oppress another. But honestly whites weren't the only ppl in history doing that. I know history very well and know all about the battles that took place on every continent throughout history.
John Davenport excuse the grammatical errors.
@John Davenport do not pretend there is no difference between genocide and war!!! there is a huge difference and never confuse them as one is just stupid and the other a war crime...
@@cederickreed2783 I can argue with that, war is not the same thing as genocide!! there is a difference just as there is a difference between oppression and genocide!!

They Have To Politisize Everything
Cj 🇨🇱 🇱🇷
As a clarification, -- the indigenous peoples that were 'wiped-off-the-face-of-the-earth' were the ones in the Caribbean islands, after the invasion by the Spanish in the 1490s. In just 25 years, the indian 'slaves' that they "discovered" were practically decimated. That's why the Spanish had to find a new "labor source," and with the help of Portuguese human cargo industry (shipping industry) they "discovered" African people to import to the plantations and gold mines of 'Spanish America' (the Caribbean, Mexico, C. & S. America.)
it's a shame that one still has to tell the truth about telling the truth, yet here we are. and u are telling the WHOLE truth!
I WISH WE WOULD OF TURNED THE GUN ON THE COMMON OPPRESSOR
YES! YES! YES!!❤❤❤
better than today's special forces. great men even in the Spanish American War 1898
buffalo soldiers didnt have equal rights. they where force to fight a war as slaves not freemen. smh
The term buffalo soldier did not come about until the 1870s, which is after the Civil War. The African American men referred to as buffalo soldiers were given the opportunity to serve their country as professional soldiers during the peace time army. Please feel free to join us at one of our many buffalo soldier programs throughout the state.
Have they the same rights today ?... Or better ,for your view point, has the black people the same rights of the others ethnic groups (without considering the fact that all of them are American citizens) ?
Forgive my ignorance about American history, but I don't know much about it, only what I could find in books or newspapers. I would like to know the opinon of common people.
Actually, most of the Buffalo soldiers volunteered to fight because they want to prove their patriotism to the whites. They wished the whites to see that they deserve their rights as citizens. In fact, it won't be until the Korean War and Vietnam War did the US military began to draft blacks.
+Denier Drayton actually buffalo soldiers volunteered they were not forced
Similar to The Five Civilized Tribes
2:52 my nigga already got a girlfriend smh
lmao this made me howl
Aborigines were fighting against aborigines to keep their property. Our history is miss told. but what different does it make?
Africans know how to find the Indian tribes. Black man. who were the copper colored people in America, that they found here? tThe people today don't look copper colored to me. But the buffalo soldiers do. Search the true history
