Explanation:

In the years immediately following the Civil War, thousands of former

slaves moved westward, hoping to find new opportunities for employment.

Among the opportunities open to young black men was serving with the United

States Army. In 1866, the United States Congress authorized the creation

of six regular Army regiments to be staffed entirely by black soldiers. By

1869, these regiments were decreased by two. Black men were given the

choice of enlisting with the Ninth or Tenth Cavalry or the Twenty-fourth or

Twenty-fifth Infantry. It is these regiments that would eventually be

dubbed the Buffalo Soldiers (Katz 1996).

The term Buffalo Soldiers was bestowed by the Plains Indians, who were

the soldiers' enemies. Despite their enmity, however, the name reveals the

respect many Native Americans accorded to the black soldiers. The Indians

had high regard for the courage and valor shown by the black men in combat.

This paper argues that the Buffalo Soldiers played a crucial, though

often overlooked role in the history of westward expansion. By protecting

settlers, the Buffalo Soldiers paved the way for the settlement of the west

and the creation of the United States. By showing courage on the

battlefield, the Buffalo Soldiers also challenged prevailing misconceptions

about black people. In doing so, they contributed to the establishment of

multicultural societies in the West and by extension, in the rest of the

The Buffalo Soldiers initially came into being because during the late

19th century, the United States Military supported segregation. Black

freemen thus could not serve along with the white soldiers

both are true, the congress does have the power to create banks, even if this power is not specifically described in the constitution, since there is nothing restricting it and there is power given to the congress to make "all laws which shall be necessary and proper". maryland was not allowed to tax a branch of the national bank operating there, and the supreme court decided that no state could. both of these topics were discussed in a decision of the mcculloch v. maryland case in 1819.

in mcculloch v. maryland (1819) the supreme court ruled that congress had implied powers under the necessary and proper clause of article i, section 8 of the constitution to create the second bank of the united states and that the state of maryland lacked the power to tax the bank.

gibbons v. ogden, (1824), was a landmark decision in which the supreme court of the united states held that the power to regulate interstate commerce, granted to congress by the commerce clause of the united states constitution, encompassed the power to regulate navigation.
