My favorite National Park Ranger, Shelton Johnson, on Black History Month, 2021.
I have been to Yosemite many times. I never heard many of the “forgotten stories” Yosemite_Shelton shares in this video. Most of you probably haven’t heard them, either. So please, have a listen because “every story deserves to be heard.”

@mostaurelius Beautiful image! But let's also discuss the history. This tree used to be called the Karl Marx tree, back before Yosemite was a national park. It was named by the Kaweah Colony, utopian commune that lived there and supported itself through logging, which was deemed illegal when it became a national park.
Soon after becoming a national park, Buffalo Soldiers were tasked with protecting Yosemite and King's Canyon from poaching and illegal logging. Captain Charles Young was one of the first superintendents of these parks and the first African-American superintendent of any national park.

A bit of Colorado history I knew nothing about. Cathay Williams was a slave who joined the Buffalo Soldiers as a man. #history #Colorado #coloradohistory #CathayWilliams #BuffaloSoldiers https://www.legendsofamerica.com/cathay-williams/

Pourquoi cette ville? D'une part à cause d'une aventure du lieutenant #Blueberry se passant à Silver Creek, l'homme à l'étoile d'argent.
Quand j'avais peint ma ville Old West, je l'avais appelée ainsi.

Et d'autre part à cause d'une aventure de l'AdC, le secret de Castonegro, un scénario oppressant qui m'a beaucoup marqué.

Voici donc un premier jet plan de la ville de Silver City, NM en 1875 pour le début de la campagne.
Le livre Six-Guns and Single-Jacks: A History of Silver City and Southwestern New Mexico regorge d'informations sur les personnages qui y sont passés, William Boney, Dan Tucker, Stagecoach Mary sans oublier les détachements et les escadrons des Buffalo Soldiers stattionnés dans la région.
