Where there black gunfighters / desperados in the American West ?
I can't stop laughing at this. . Anyway. A lot of American blacks display a 'cowboy' or 'desperado' image today . . lol But . . back in the days , were there really black gunfighters in the American West ? All desperados today 'known' were of European dissent . . . Billy The Kid, Sundance Kid , Wyatt Earp . . . It would have made sense for blacks at that time having acted lawless since they were "bottom of the barrel" yet I think they were too scattered and unorganized back then. . Often also illiterate . . So , any recorded cases of black gunfighters? They sure act like those in America's cities today . . . . but back then ? And if so , how were they received ? Anything? |

Here's Sammy Davis Jr. playing a gunfighter on The Rifleman: Side note: In real life, Sammy Davis Jr. was one of Hollywood's best "trick artists" when it came to handling a six-gun - able to spin his weapons so well that he taught other actors his techniques. But just as good was Robert Culp, as shown in this video clip, also from The Rifleman. Everything seen in the video was Culp's, without making use of special effects or a "stuntman": |

Negroes were by far and away the best gunfighters, ranchers, explorers, merchants and inventors in the American West. Were it not for the efforts and organizational talents of african americans the American West would have likely remained virgin territory well into the last century.
The racist educational system in the US has covered these facts forever. Very shameful. |

"Buffalo Soldiers originally were members of the 10th Cavalry Regiment of the United States Army, formed on September 21, 1866, at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. This nickname was given to the Black Cavalry by Native American tribes who fought in the Indian Wars. The term eventually became synonymous with all of the African American regiments formed in 1866"
