BLACK SOCIAL HISTORY : A TIME LINE IMAGES OF BLACK COW BOYS OF THE OLD WILD WEST :

We all agreed that Hollywood Film Makers did a great disservice to the world by making Western Films about the Old West with just one race in it, it shows the deeply embedded racism in the Old Hollywood that Black People can only be seen in menial jobs or acting like buffoons or idiots the best parts that Black people were given as film parts in those day.  Not satisfied with that, they then set about bending history to there own racist taste and mind which unfortunately has given the world including black people believing that only white people were cow boys in tho old west. My children believe that the west only contain white people, white men,women, children and white families. The true facts is so far removed from the truth that there is only one answer to this the big "R"   Racism.
 
One quarter of the cow boys of the old wild west were black men and some women, one of them wrote a book about his life as a cow boy in the 19th century which gave an insight into the true life of Black People as Cow Boys In the west. They were the hardest working cow boys of the west, very good with the horses and cattle but also very good cooks, singer and dancers, good with the Native American Tribes as some of them married women from the Indian tribes. We must teach our children to understand Black People contribution to the world, even when they try to wipe us clean off the real and true history of the important part Black People has played in History.
