Books

Choctaw Nationalism by Dr. Kennith H. York is a wonderfully researched book that draws upon oral traditions, historical documents, and accounts of observers and scholars to illuminate the prehistory, culture, language, and history of the Chahta Okla People.

Let’s rekindle Choctaw Nationalism as they survive the Spanish terrorist attack of 1540, the French and British invasion of the 1700s, the U.S. Government Policy of Indian Removal of 1830, the great Depression of the 1930s, the Civil Rights Era of 1960s, and the current economic recession, which threatens the survival of 11,000 Choctaws. The Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians stands as a shining example of a people striving to embrace their heritage while working within the constraints placed upon them by the U.S. government.
