The Buffalo Soldiers Black History Biographical Timeline Fine Art Poster

The Buffalo Soldiers
Black History Biographical Timeline Fine Art Poster

The Plains Indians nicknamed the black cavalrymen Buffalo Soldiers - a title the troopers proudly accepted. To be associated with the fighting spirit of the Indian's sacred buffalo was a measure of respect.
The Buffalo Soldiers consistently received some of the worst assignments the Army had to offer and repeatedly faced fierce prejudice. Despite this, the 9th and 10th Cavalries fought with great dedication and courage and developed into two of the most effective and distinguished fighting units in the Army.

William Frederick "Buffalo Bill" Cod,y American Scout, Later Wild West Showman, Giclee Print
William Frederick "Buffalo Bill" Cody,
American Scout, later Wild West Showman, Giclee Print

The showman William F. "Buffalo Bill" Cody lived in Leavenworth, Kansas as a young child. One of the reasons his family moved to Kansas was because his father believe Kansas should be a Free State. After his father's death due to stab wounds from a pro-slavery supporter, 11 year old William went to work becoming an Army scout, hunter, fur trapper, gold prospector, Pony Express rider, and Union soldier in the Civil War, at various times. Cody earned his nickname because of his ability to plentifully supply the Kansas Pacific Railroad workers with bison meat.

Cody's "Buffalo Bill’s Wild West" was a show that presented Native Americans and real working people of the fast disappearing Old West. Cody, one of the founders of Cody, WY, was also noted for his conservation efforts and speaking out in favor of women voting.
b. 2-26-1846; LeClaire, Iowa

The film musical, The Wizard of Oz, was based on the L. Frank Baum's fantasy children's book, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. The story of is of young Dorothy Gale who is swept up with her Kansas farmhouse and little dog Toto, by a tornado and dropped into Munchkin Land, right on top of the Wicked Witch of the East.

Baum adapted the book for the stage and it was also made into a very popular film musical starring Judy Garland as Dorothy.
