Posted on a FB page - some others may have seen today.
Hmm... from today's Casual Racism file... I am sitting in Boardwalk Burgers and Fries and just glanced up at the menu board which features the "Buffalo Soldier Salad". The Buffalo Soldiers, also known as the 9th & 10th Negro Cavalry, served across the Plains and Southwest in the latter 19th Century. Not quite sure that using them to sell fast food is a reasonable notion.
Thought it might be interesting fodder for discussion. Personally - I had no idea what the historical name of the 9th and 10th Negro Cavalry was - let alone existed.
Cant this just be about Buffalo as in "Spicy"?
