Did you know the desire to escape slavery, was once classified as a mental illness called Drapetomania in 1851.

Black people were considered mentally ill for refusing to live in bondage.

Farewell to a Legend: Last Surviving Buffalo Soldier, Robert W. Dixon, Dies at 103

Today, we honor the extraordinary life of Robert Walter Dixon, the last surviving Buffalo Soldier, who passed away on November 15, 2024, at the age of 103.

Born in 1921 in Manhattan, Dixon enlisted in the U.S. Army in 1941 at the start of World War II. He proudly served as a corporal in the Buffalo Soldiers regiment, where he and his fellow troops trained cadets at West Point in horseback riding and mounted tactics. These soldiers not only served their country but also broke barriers in the face of segregation and inequality.

After the war, Dixon continued to exemplify leadership and service. He worked at IBM in Poughkeepsie, rising to become a manager before retiring in 1977. In his later years, he dedicated himself to his community in Albany, serving as a pastor and a civic leader. He chaired the city's Community Police Review Board and led efforts to memorialize the legacy of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

In 2021, Dixon returned to West Point for the dedication of a monument honoring the Buffalo Soldiers, a powerful reminder of the regiment's contributions and his role in shaping history.

Robert W. Dixon’s life was one of resilience, courage, and service. His passing marks the end of an era, closing the chapter on the living legacy of the Buffalo Soldiers. He leaves behind his wife, Georgia, and an enduring impact on the country he served.

Rest in power, Corporal Robert W. Dixon. Your legacy will never be forgotten.

This is so crazy

This man lives in Sweden. He’s at a store similar to our World Market that sells food from all over the world

He shows that US Candy is actually labeled with a warning and on the back of each item they put a list of all the dangerous ingredients

This gentleman is not wrong. 😳👇

White Privilege is planning a coup to overthrow the U.S. Government, and being able to walk back into the Oval Office like nothing ever happened.

Kamala Harris did this in just 100 days, and she executed it perfectly. So imagine her presidency. Women are much better leaders.

This Kamala Harris ad narrated by Viola Davis is a cinematic masterpiece.

Kamala Harris will be the first president in history with experience in all three branches of government—judicial, legislative, and executive. So to say this woman is "not qualified" or experienced to be president is solely based on racism and misogyny.
