See the story of Bass Reeves come to life during the Bass Reeves Western History Conference. Bass Reeves was the first African American to be commissioned as a U.S. Deputy Marshal west of the Mississippi River. After Oklahoma gained statehood in 1907, Jim Crow laws prevented him from continuing as a deputy marshal, and he joined the Muskogee Police Department.
