Two years ago ? Tell me again whos keeping the masses seperated why is there such a great divide in the different races of our great Country ?

Seems to me that reporting something like this would bring people together we need more reporting of what Black Americans did to contribute to the wealth of our country weather large or small Im tired of being seperated from other Americans just because of my skin color or thiers !

One of the most remarkable discoveries was a 130-year-old bottle of Tabasco. Reconstructed from 31 shards of glass, it is now officially the oldest style of Tabasco bottle known to exist. Historians speculate that the Boston Saloon was among the first eateries to introduce Tabasco.

But the greatest find of all isn't as tangible as these artifacts.

Nonsense, how could anything be more important than the history of Tabasco Sauce?

Maybe the wild west wasn't so wild!

Hey, if you made it big at the diggings you sure wouldn't want to eat bad food on a dirt floor.

We need to track down William A. G. Brown's decendants. No reparations for them.

It is also true that 25% of the US Cavalry, charged with maintaining the peace on the frontier, were blacks. It is also true that a substantial number of the settlers who were homesteaders, and of the cowboys who worked the ranches, were blacks. Ancient photographs from the West show these facts.

And the American West was perhaps the greatest meritocracy ever known on these shores. If you could do there the task you had set for yourself, you would survive and thrive, regardless of who you were or where you came from. If you could not do that, a swift and painful death from any of a variety of causes would be your fate.

Thank you for putting up this very interesting post.

Fairbanks was founded about 100 years ago. In spite of being in the middle of nowhere, it had as much of the amenities of civilization as could be shipped in. Many of the objects, antiques now, are still in use in many new and rustically luxurious tourist hotels. It's a little odd to walk into a new, probably unfinished [like most Fairbanks houses] bed and breakfast that is really a hotel and find all the furnishings and decorations are old pieces.

Thanks for the ping!

Tobasco sauce, Vitamin "T", one of the elixers of life. The best is that you can buy in gallon jugs.

Not a chance. Jessie Jackson, the extortion expert will no doubt be "the new sheriff in town."
