WELCOME TO OUR WEBSITE

Bearing witness to some but not all contributions made to society by a race of people who arrived on the shores of the New World not as immigrants, but as captives, the Native Americans will to name the dark  skin man resulted in their honorably labeling him; the Buffalo Soldier. It is because of their bravery, resiliency, and will to be recognized as men and women, that we now give credence to their struggle and once unrecognized histories. It is because of them that we, their descendants pay homage not only to the Buffalo Soldiers but to those who paved the way for us to experience the unalienable right that others arriving in this country received without opposition once reaching its shores. If researched, any of us could undoubtedly trace our blood-line to individuals of the Colored Troops identifying them as an ancestor.

We therefore, dedicate our web-site to the everlasting memory of those civil war era warriors who fought for much more than just the cause of the United States but for that which they were promised with the passage of the 14th amendment. Their desire to collect on this promise strengthened their resolve resulting in their forging ahead to prove themselves worthy.

Welcome to the website of the BUFFALO TROOPERS MOTORCYCLE CLUB. We've created our website in recognition, and honor of former slave who as loyal Union Army soldiers, at a time of need, again provided an essential service to their country. Military terms, places, and events are used throughout our site in an effort to give the feeling of one living during the same era in which our ancestors fought to prove themselves worthy of their God-Given-Rights.

The observation of a people native to North America learned to respect and revere the dark skin people they encountered. Recognizing them to be jovial characters during leisure times they also realized that when engaged in combat they were fearsome fighters.
