    Why lie to your self and others to ex copy something not true. Except the truth. God made us all 1 blood. So why say one is different than another. Ask yourself "Who am I?" See where your authenticity takes you. We as Americans are the melting pot of the world 🌎.

    As a societal union of a people supposedly united under God, but under a constitution that in it's original ratification made no allowance for people of color to pursue the American dream that informed more privileged American citizens - the dream that as Americans - all Americans alike should be free to pursue - to insure happiness for their selves, their loved ones, their children - America as a whole, as a political - conceptual entity - owes an immeasurable debt to all people's that because of that perhaps intentional governmental neglect or purposefully imposed governmental and societal suppression did not have the same opportunities that I and others - past and present had to make the dream a reality. In the human-created color-based social construct that most people in the world seem to use to define morality, I hope that when I die it is in God's eyes with a whiter conscience than those Americans that throughout our national history have with their inhumanity to man besmirched mankind and our national name. Even leaving my military service aside, people of color - people who would have risked or would risk their lives for me and for whom I would have or presently would unhesitantly do the same for - have been and are among my best friends. I feel no shame in acknowledging that a person of color may be far more intelligent than I am, although I admit that in moments of philosophical disquietude I may feel a little unbecoming jealousy towards those richer than I am, but their economic state is no reflection on their moral character and my financial means or lack of is the result of my own action or inaction. Mankind's humanity and capacity for love is not defined by a color or limited by the lack of money. A child may be at first a little bit surprised that his new friend happens to be purple. A child does not care if Barney? doesn't have a plug nickel to his name. Are we not all God's chil- dren?

    It’s sad that the Creek have revoked Black Creeks membership since 1979. They want to forget the 1866 treaty when its convenient for them. So ignore the part that states enslaved Africans will receive the benefits and rights as Indians but totally cite the 1866 treaty when fighting the Mcgirt vs Oklahoma case. I can trace my ancestors back 5 generations being born in Creek territory. But because they were placed on the freedmen rolls memberships were revoked in 1979.

    @Carol Brotherton I’am a American Born citizen, idiot. If my comment offended you it’s because it’s the truth that’s not my problem it’s yours. Hop on a boat and row back to Europe or wherever you came from. I stated the truth if you’re bitter because you don’t like to hear it that’s on you. You assume I’m not from here just because of what I said and your only defense is “if you don’t like it here go back” that’s the typical answer coming from some Caucasian that has nothing good to say. Bless your heart honey 😂😂😂😂

    It unfortunately a very common story in the states. To my knowledge the federal government would declare that the natives weren’t ‘improving’ the land therefore they’re not using it.
