April 6th is James Beckwourth Day!!!
"James Pierson Beckwourth was the only African American pioneer to record his exploits in the early days of the western frontier. He was involved in major events from Canada to Mexico and Florida to California, where he discovered the Beckwourth Pass through the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Like his better-known contemporaries Daniel Boone, Kit Carson, and Davy Crockett, he was a true adventurer." Thank you Mr. Beckwourth for all of your contributions and inspiration!
