âBuffalo Soldierâ Was The Nickname Native Americans Reportedly Gave To The Black Soldiers Of The U.S. Armyâs 9th And 10th Cavalry Regiments During The So-Called Indian Wars. The Term Eventually Applied To All Regiments In The U.S. Army Segregating African Americans Until Harry Trumanâs 1948 Executive Order . Since They Were Renowned For Courage And Disciplineâand Contrary To Many Other Regiments Suffered Relatively Little Drunkenness Or DesertionâMarley Uses The Buffalo Soldiers' Fight For Survival During The Indian Wars As A Symbol Of Black Resistance And Identity. At The Same Time He Touches Upon The Cruel Irony Of Deploying One Subjected People To Remove Another. Written By Bob Marley And Noel G. âKing Sportyâ William In 1980 âBuffalo Soldierâ Released Posthumously As A Single From "Confrontation" The First Album Released After Marleyâs Untimely Death In 1981. Marley Uses The African American English AAE Letting The Reader Know That His Is A Voice Of Experience. Being A Rastafarian Himself He Can Easily Fit Into The Shoes Of These Buffalo Soldiers. Although Not The First Ever âReggaeâ Song âBuffalo Soldierâ Contributed A Lot In Bringing Reggae Into International Notice. The First Ever Popular Reggae Song Was Actually âDo The Reggay â A 1968 Single By Toots And The Maytals. Although The Song Brings To Light The Sufferings Of The Buffalo Soldiers It Also Comments On The Happy-Go-Lucky Nature Of The Soldiers. The Upbeat Nature Of Reggae Combined With Singing âwoy Yoy Yoyâ Concretes An Almost Sarcastic Tone Full Of Euphemism. Itâs Almost Like The Buffalo Soldier Is Staring The White Men Right In The Eye And Smiling.
