Our Native American Heritage | Mississippi Roads | MPB

Chahta Immi Cultural Center, Indian mound sites, Choctaw Indian Fair, Winterville Mounds, Choctaw Fresh Foods
In the next edition of MS Roads we’re taking a look at Mississippi’s diverse Native American heritage. We’re up in Neshoba County at the newly opened Chahta Immi Cultural Center. We’ll travel to some of the important Indian Mound sites around the state and look at a new initiative to share the stories of these historic mounds with visitors. We’ll revisit a story about the much-anticipated annual Choctaw Indian Fair and travel to the Delta for a look in the rearview mirror at a story on the impressive Winterville Mounds. Then we’ll take a look at Choctaw Fresh Foods and their efforts to make fresh produce more readily available to people all over the state.

    WE should be telling of our own past, the good, bad & the ugly. Unfortunately, POLITICS, once again, has many afraid to. My book will end ALL this silence when it drops. The REAL Truth IS out there.

    Jose Stevenson it’s a whole video on choctaw history reported by white people...how much worse could it get, oh right, now they want to dig up native burial mounds to learn more about choctaw history instead of idk asking the descendants of the choctaw people. it’s bad, it’s really bad

    I'd be interested to read or watch more about Mississippi Indians from Native American writers or sources if anyone can point me in the right direction. I've done some googling, sources haven't been great, but I'm open to better sources.

    The Choctaws did not get as much support from the confederate as they expected. They got a very partial supply of tents, clothing, garrison and camp equipments from the Confederate Army. Several of the Mississippi Choctaws who were captured in the Union prison in New York died in prison. The passion and the zeal or the Confederate Army began to take a nose dive once the Choctaws found out that no arms and payment were arranged for them.

    Most confederates didn't get as much support as they expect either from my research. A few of the Choctaw in my family line served the CSA in that war.

    I really enjoyed this video, learning about the Sacred Mounds as well about the Choctaw Nation, totally worth doing as they're doing because that is a return to our Native values and traditions. Stickball game, sounds interesting a bit rough, a prehispanic ballgame, only played at the moment in Sinaloa State, is played with a hard rubber ball and the idea is to hit it with your hips, I guess that's why our ancestors were so fit and healthy when the white folks came. 😂And I couldn't believe my eyes but Choctaws also eat the Tamal, corn dough cooked in a corn husk, I'm guessing also flavored, in this case, with green chili sauce? Or just filled with meat or veggies? Thanks for sharing, 👍and greetings👋from central Mexico!

    They got white folk managing a farm, selling produce to white folks, with silent "choctaw" workers pickin in the fields, who never talk on camera themselves...looks like a great way to hide illegal farm workers from ICE, & another layer to the $5 shuffle.

    LoL, Giants built the mounds! and the natives were slaves! But y'all keep on pushing the narrative to erase native truths! Aho!
