The Ontario Museum of History and Art's latest exhibition, "For Race and Country," reveals the role played by Black soldiers in the Army’s history of violence against Native American people, and it presents debates in the Black community over participation in imperialist wars. Today, Buffalo Soldiers are mainly known through legend and popular culture. For Race and Country goes beyond simplistic portrayals, providing a vehicle for the voices of the soldiers themselves.
For Race and Country: Buffalo Soldiers in California is based on the California African American Museum exhibition of the same name, curated by Susan D. Anderson, and tours through Exhibit Envoy.

Admission to the Museum, its programs and events are free and open to all.

Open to the Public:
Thursday - Friday, 12 PM – 4 PM
Saturday - Sunday, 11 AM – 5 PM

Closed:
Monday - Wednesday
