That God's minute poem...so lovely

[@lisarice9337]

Thank you. I will definitely be visiting this museum when I come to Houston.

San Angelo Texas has a great Buffalo Soldier Museum and a great assortment of different buildings and Parade grounds to visit. There is an elementary school on part of the Marching Grounds where I went to Grade School and a Small Church is part of the facilities Some of the apartments the Buffalo soldiers used while serving have been converted into nice and unique apartments

I have been a student of Buffalo Soldier history a long time. I grew up in the Texas Panhandle and these troop did the brunt of the work in the Red River war and settlement protection in the Panhandle and West Texas. Hats off to the 9th & 10th cavalry and the 24th & 25th infantry! Hoorah for these brave patriots.

[@kenibnanak5554]

Do you know anything of the deployments of the 21st which merged with another regiment to form the 24 in 1869?

[@mikeaskme3530]

@William Keith i agree all American history should be taught to everyone no matter how damaging it is, the good and the bad. But until educators see fit to teach the history of these soldiers and many other African American units and accomplishments to all students, African Americans must learn their history either at home or by the elderly. It is a shame that it is this way, but think about this, how many war movies are made and how many of them have black soldiers featured, or any non-white soldiers featured very few.

Buffalo Soldier Museum... Informative and Inspiring!!!

[@watonnaracawan8814]

SOME VIEWERS HONOR THE BUFFALO SOLDIERS: That is tantamount to the kkk honoring their wicked ancestors.. What the buffalo soldiers did was merely and extension of the evil. wicked , practices of their white masters. They aided their own enemy in destroying a people, my ancestors , who has never did anything to them.. One oppressed people killing another oppressed people , FOR ? For the same group that oppressed them both. And , the disgrace of it all is that they erect a statue to commemorate it all in kansas... Were they giving thanks to Mr. Lincoln for freeing the slaves , or was this a case of blind patriotism ? And they have the gole to insist that confederate statues be pulled down ... Wow.... what do you call that the word starts with an H

[@DrDorindaRolle]

Thank you for this interview and story. I love Texas Country Reporter. I use this video for my classes at the University of Texas at San Antonio.

[@leebirdwell]

I love the idea of the heritage taught here. It seems to only be shown to black youth, but this is history and ideals that ALL American youth need to hear. This history of the valor of the Buffalo Soldiers is applicable to all Americans of whatever ancestry.

I served in the U.S. Army in the 1970s, just after Vietnam. I now live in Brazil. I have Brazilians ask me that question. Why would a black man (I'm a white guy) honorably serve a country that treats them as a second class citizen. I tell people that I believe it was because when we entered the military, we were all the same. It didn't matter who your father was. They were judged on their achievements there. This was the most level playing ground they had. look at Bass Reeves. He said it wasn't a perfect system, but it was the best around. This history is not only very interesting, but very important.

[@mikeaskme3530]

My great great grand farther was among the first Buffalo Soldiers.

[@dcduvally3253]

9:10pm I have an ancestor who was a Buffalo Soldier and received the Medal of Honor post Civil War, I'm concerned about him not being mentioned in your historic memoirs. His name was Emmanuel Stance. Can you please post any further information you have about him...I have found books in the library yet no mention on black sites

[@teddysalad8227]

Should have put the museum in Ft. Davis where Buffalo Soldiers actually lived and worked.

I don't wanna criticize Bob Crawford but I think most people realize any TX museum is gonna be honest with its history.

[@mikeaskme3530]

@MikeCNW, i doubt it, American history and since mention Texas history is told through entertainment and it is not honest.

[@keetmankeetmanaa7704]

Great video but I wish more was said about their activities "out west".

[@NdaKeekz]

Like being pawns for the government that enslaved them and forcing the native people off of their land?

[@beverlyann111]

I heard that they were sent to murder another oppressed people, the American Indians

[@ritawilliams8686]

you read the Emaciation Proclamation.? No slaves were freed.Only the ones in the parts of the South where the Union was not in control. That is why there are so many "excepts" in it.

[@InThaChoppItUpBoxx]

Its a reminder to our kids of where we come from and the reason unity important this land is run off knowing powerful cruel people who pnce rule off very lown down way and is glorified to this very day and is compare to the treatment of nazi but today is a new day and colors should be the beautiful gift from god of sight. today the willie lench concept of power control still occur til this day just more advance

Red Victims And Black Oppressors

[@mikeaskme3530]

@matthew man, you must be kidding, what about the so called " five civilized tribes" who owned slaves, are they victims?

[@mikeaskme3530]

@@danielshy9176 so the five civilized tribes do not own slaves, is that what you are saying? as far as Africans selling their own, you do know that Africa is continent filled with over 54 nations, and even back there it was filled with many kingdoms. So unless you will agree that Europeans are the same, and that all Europeans are responsible for the atrocities of the Holocaust, you just might want to revise your comment to something a little more coherent and intelligent.

[@kperez-wq3iy]

@daniel shy...Stop with the revised history. If the white man was so righteous why would he buy another human to later beat, starve, and sell their babies? White men knew Christianity. Africans did not.

[@matthewmann8969]

mike askme Except The Buffalo Soldiers did not usually go after The Five Civilized Tribes that is the problem here they went after Non Five Civilized Tribes Amerindians for the most part.
