The Lewis & Clark Expedition was a pivotal moment in American history. But the story of York, a man enslaved to William Clark and comrade on this journey, has been obscured by omission and stereotype.

Watching after the " lady" defaced a statue of him. His story is inspiring. Why aren't we teaching children about him?

@@lynns4426 my parents are from Jim Crow south and I asked them if they knew anything about any massacres that occurred during their time and they said no. Not even word of mouth. Nobody ever said anything about it….not knowing what happened to our people will cause a false sense of security that will get a person hurt or killed….this has gone on way too long…we have to teach and become more informed about our people.

It's sad how they just chose to erase an individual because they didn't want them to be significant!

I recently took a trip to Fort Clatsop and Desperation Point in the PNW and York was barely mentioned at the museums. It led me to search for more info and I found this doc.

When did York get time to master several dialects of Native American tongues, If all he was was a man servant/slave?

From what I’ve read York was never freed. He was sold away from his family but who really knows

@jamescoleridge7368 Год назад

Very good and thoroughly enjoyed .but now you should look at Stefan Milosevic s York !

@dave9351 Год назад

Sacagawea was also given "short shrift" in Lewis & Clark's journals as well as ignored by Congress when the "Corp of Discovery" finally returned back east.

@althomasville2237 2 года назад

Natives helped slaves in the underground railroad. There were black chiefs believe it or not. slaves have integrated in gene pool descendents to come with natives, Italians, Irish, and a few polish because all were depicted as inferior to the forces to be

@foxmoontp Месяц назад

Natives also were slave masters in Oklahoma

@gullibleskeptic82 3 года назад

Not bad.

@danclark4494 2 года назад

I am a relative of William clark and I want to believe York was a frontiersman like all others York was a wonderful man I wish I could contact his ancestors and get to know there family history 😀

My understanding is that he was a slave only in the America .... once they crossed over the Mississippi River, he was no longer a slave but a free man and was treated as such --- same with the 16 year old pregnant Native American woman who helped the expedition and even saved lives and journals; and the men even helped raised her son "Pomp"! It's actually a beautiful story of our roots and relationships between men/women/black/white/brown/children....

@althomasville2237 2 года назад

Ahh the biggest argument between Missouri and Oregon. Remember it started in Missouri it ended in Oregon. same with Lindbergh
