Outlaws beware! In this episode, we’re going to the Wild West. This is the story of the fearless lawman, Bass Reeves—one of the first Black deputy U.S. Marshals west of the Mississippi. During his long career, he escaped death, chased the deadliest criminals, and arrested as many as 3,000 lawbreakers. When bandits and horse-thieves heard the name “Bass Reeves,” they knew they were in trouble. Grab your cowboy boots and let's go!
