Why were buffalo so important to the Indians? Why would railroad companies hire buffalo hunters? Think About It

The Plains Indians depend on the buffalo for survival and their way of life.

 As Americans moved Westward Indians got pushed onto reservations.  What do you think is wrong with this?

Reservation Life: Bad things about it  Usually received bad land (Oklahoma).  Indians had little experience farming.  Many kids were placed in boarding schools. They had to wear Anglo clothes, cut their hair & speak English.  If the gov’t didn’t provide food, Indians often faced starvation.

Western Frontier  Opportunities for African-Americans arose on the frontier.

Buffalo Soldiers Black soldiers (many were ex- slaves) that served on the frontier. The name ‘buffalo soldier’ given by the Indians. Served in the 9 th & 10 th Cavalry& the 24 th & 25 th Infantry.
