Corps Of Discovery Fun Facts
One obscure — and surprising — fact: an enslaved man named York, owned by William Clark, was one of the first documented African Americans to cross North America with the Corps; Indigenous people they met were often astonished by York’s appearance and he was frequently used in diplomatic encounters—yet he was not freed after the expedition.
