Aproximately 20 percent of the U.S. Cavalry involved in the Plains Indian Wars (1866–90) were African American soldiers. These soldiers made up the Ninth and Tenth U.S. Cavalry Regiments.

The Cheyenne and Comanche tribes nicknamed these men Buffalo Soldiers because they were courageous and strong, qualities shared with the mighty buffalo.

Do you think it was moral for European

No, it was not moral because it disrupts what they are already trying to fix. When the people come to take over, the people have no more freedom, they have to listen the people that take over. And the people that take over want money, resources, and land, so that makes it even worse for them because of the fact that they are going through all of their resources, and losing their land faster making them even more poor.
