Choctaw

Then you go north to go to Amarillo from there.

And by the way, Chickasaw, Choctaw, all who is.

Is he really?

Yeah.

Odessa was the regular Tuesday night town, and Wahoo, they put him over in Odessa big time from all through the 60s.

He's one of the reasons why Jack originally wanted to go to OU, because of Wahoo.

Like I said, it's Chickasaw, Choctaw, Indian, and that's the same nation we're in, so.

So 1964, he's working for Vince Sr. in the WWWF, where the promoter recognized the potential of his Native American heritage and eventually presented him as Chief Wahoo McDaniel.

And it says ...

It's talking about, um, Irish culture, Choctaw c- culture, and, uh, North African.

And I started reading, and Irish and Choctaw are, like, really woven together in history because I guess, like, during the potato famine, the Choctaw sent a bunch of money to them, and then, like, during COVID, Ireland sent over $2 million to the Choctaw.

Are you serious?

Yeah.

I didn't know that either.

Yeah.

And so that's why it's, like, interesting, too, that, like, Remmick is Irish and the vampire hunters are Choctaw and, like, the, those little things are, like, all tied in throughout.

No, I know.

He led military units comprised of Cherokee or Choctaw during the war.

That's right.

So he had no problem there.

Economic.

During the last few days, Negroes, generally known as, quote, free men, end quote, from the Choctaw and Chickasaw nations have paid over $50,000 to the commissioner to the five tribes of Indians at Muscogee for land.

the freedmen were allowed to select enough land to bring their allotments up to forty acres paying for it the appraised value of the land this appraisement was made by the government several years ago and is about one-fourth of the actual cash value of the land now the negroes were given this preferential right to buy by a special act of Congress, and their right expired December 1, which caused the rush.

A colored church in Atlanta has opened a labor exchange.

The Kickapoos were easterners and had been termed friendly Indians upon their arrival west of the Mississippi River.

The term friendly Indian, often used in writings and reports of the times, referred in the larger sense to those tribes such as the Kickapoos, Cherokees, Choctaws, Chickasaws, Seminoles, Delawares, and others that had once been powerful tribes in the eastern United States, but because of the encroachment of the white settlers, they had, by treaty, coercion, or force during the early 1800s, been continually moved by the United States government from their ancestral or reservation lands in the east.

They finally ended up at various times on reservations assigned to them in what is now Kansas and Oklahoma, Indian Territory.

Here they usually encountered hostility from the native tribes of the Great Plains, whose superior numbers threatened their entire existence.

Your coming was important to all of us Indians.

Taunus, Chickasaws, Choctaws, Iroquois, Nez Perce, and Navajos, Blackfeet, and Delawares.

All 300 tribes of us.

Oh,

It is very bad.

Maintenant, pardon-moi, s'il vous plaît.

Crossings like this one at Kaskaskia were made many places on the Mississippi by the Delaware, the Cherokees, Choctaws, Chickasaws, Creeks, Seminoles, Kickapoos, Wyandottes, Ottawa's, Potawatomi's, Winnebago's, Saks, Peoria's, Miami's.

All went to the land beyond the Mississippi.

The largest tribes in the area, the Abenaki, the Massachusetts, the Narragansett, the Wampanoag, that's who they were.

The Narragansetts and Eastern Niantics were considered a single tribe, and their combined population was about 4,000 individuals, which is 25% greater than that of the next largest tribe of New England, but much smaller than Iroquois, the Powhatan, the Choctaw, the Cherokee.

On the eve of the Puritan colonization, native population density, we believe, was probably less than 0.22 per square mile.

So they're huge open areas.
