Black History Month: Paul Stewart founded the Black American West Museum in the 1970s

Forgotten Colorado (Vol. 8) Dearfield, Colorado
Founded by O. T. Jackson in 1910 , This was Colorado'd first all black agricultural colony. The name Dearfield was decided after one of the early settlers, Dr. J. H. P. Westbrook, who was a physician from Denver. The name was chosen because The land was to be very dear to the hearts of the settlers. The colony struggled due o the fact that most of residence no agricultural experienc. Neighbors taught them techniques of dry land farming, livestock and poultry raising. In 1921, Dearfield had 700 people with improved lands worth $750,000, livestock and poultry worth $200,000 and an annual production of $125,000.
1940: The Great Depression, Drought, and the Dust Bowl. Dearfield's population diminished to 12.
O.T. Jackson offered to sell the town to Governor Ralph Carr as use as an internment camp for Japanese prisoners of war.
Sadly this historic town was left to rot until 1998 when the Black American West Museum in Denver submitted an application to the National Trust for Historic Preservation through the Colorado Historical Society.
Sadly not much as come in the way of preservation other than a few supports, a fence and an engraved stone marker.

Rivers where you can still find gold
There's still gold in these hills
The gold rushes of the 19th century have long since ended, but there are still plenty of places you can hunt for the precious metal using a shovel, pan, metal detector and more. In fact, recreational gold mining is a pastime these days for many people, and for good reason: the largest nugget ever found in California was discovered by an amateur. Here are some key locations worldwide that you can still prospect for the yellow metal – you never know, you may get lucky and strike it rich.

My name's Izkaltonalli. (It) means son of the sun. (Q: Tell me, what kind of emotions is it bringing out in you today?)

22. West and American Indian representatives walking into museum
STORYLINE:
A colourful Native Nations procession along Washington's National Mall on Tuesday heralded the opening of the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of the American Indian.
Thousands of native Americans - from Peru in the south to the northern-most reaches of Canada - are taking part in the opening ceremony and a six-day celebration of native culture in the centre of the US capital.
Many American Indians believed the museum and its tribute to native peoples is welcome and long overdue.
Aztec Indians from the Mexica tribe, now based in San Francisco, danced with headfeathers that reached as high as six feet above their heads.
Crowds gathered in crisp weather under a brilliant sun in advance of an opening ceremony featuring speeches by US Senators Ben Nighthorse Campbell and Daniel Inouye as well as Peruvian President Alejandro Toledo.
Missing from the opening festivities, however, was the architect who designed the stunning tan building, layered in swooping levels of Minnesota limestone rounded to depict the curves of the Earth, sun and moon.
Built at a cost of 214 (m) million US dollars, the sweeping lines of the museum represent a communing with nature as the country's tribal peoples did.

Most Armed Man in America on guns
Michael Koenigs @MikeOnABikeABC reports on Colorado gun shop owner Mel Bernstein who casually known as the “most armed man in America” after acquiring thousands of high-powered weapons, bazookas and machine guns.
His firearms collection dwarfs the number of guns -- 47 -- allegedly found in the Las Vegas hotel suite and two homes of mass shooter Stephen Paddock, for instance, but the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) is unable to confirm whether Bernstein has amassed more weapons than any other U. S. gun owner.
“ATF cannot quantify who possesses the most firearms in America because there is no database to reference this information,” an ATF representative wrote in response to an inquiry from ABC News. “A firearm registry or database of individuals who own firearms regulated under the Gun Control Act (GCA) does not exist.”
Bernstein says he has amassed over 4,000 weapons at his Colorado Springs compound, where he also keeps military-style vehicles. The weapons are registered in his name, he says, and he also rents and sells machine guns to his customers.
His gun shop, six shooting ranges, military museum, paintball park, motorcross park and home are located on the 260-acre property known as Dragonland.
“We’ve been selling more guns in the last three weeks than we have in the last eight months,” Bernstein said of his firearms shop called Dragonmans.
As for gun ownership in general, about 3 percent of Americans own about half the country’s 265 million guns, according to a 2016 Harvard-Northeastern survey. Such “super owners” possess an average of 17 guns each, and an estimated 133 million guns in total.
“If anybody comes on your property and threatens you with bodily harm, it’s legal to shoot them, [according to] Colorado law,” Bernstein said as he drove toward his one-story house in which he keeps M-16 machine guns, sawed-off shotguns, and multiple handguns around his bed.
In August, four people used Bernstein’s truck to smash into the Dragonmans gun store and steal 84 guns, police said. Federal authorities have since arrested four suspects, including his stepdaughter and step-grandson, who now face felony charges in connection to the theft of firearms from a federal firearms licensee. They have not entered pleas.
In 2012, his wife, Terry Flanell, 51, was accidentally killed by a smoke bomb on the property while filming a reality-TV pilot for the Discovery Channel.
Now, his home -- decorated with jukeboxes, vintage Cola-Cola memorabilia and model cars -- reminds him of a bygone era.
Bernstein also keeps four female mannequins at the home. “I need someone to talk to, to tell them my problems,” Bernstein said.
He added: “This whole house fixed up like this puts me back in my era, back in the sixties where I belong.”
