    My grandpa’s grandma was a full blooded Choctaw woman named Mohanoa or Salli Johnson. They rejected her daughter Minnie Johnson in her Dawes roll application even though she could speak Choctaw and Said her mom was a tribal member and has been in Mississippi all her life. Her so called full blooded Choctaw Brother and another Dawes roll member who knew them and their mom testified for her but she was rejected yet her brother was accepted. She wasn’t half Negro and she just didn’t look the part of their idea Indian like her brother. She had kinky hair while her brother had straight hair. That’s noted in the application as well.

      That’s crazy bruh. I found out my freshman year of college. As I was ethically hungry to find out who and what were my ancestors on my dad side. As I have his fine hair. Very hairy guy, and myself as I get it from him. His dad, my grandfather is black and Choctaw, and his mother and goes back are full blood Choctaw. It’s amazing man, people of color especially, African Americans need to know where they come from! I’m glad I’m probably 2/4 Choctaw!

      It’s crazy, it goes all the way back to the 1840’s on my ancestry tree. As my grandfather know all of his family. It’s amazing man, when you find this stuff out. But most of the time, most people of color just say to think they are actually Indians. Your skin, and hair would tell it all on how much you would have. Even tho you could not have the common traits and still be like 3-5%. I’m still waiting on my DNA results!

      Robert Roberts The thing that people are not realizing is that it is a known fact that life started in Africa... Known fact... They even made a national geographic documentary about it... People are forgetting that at one point in time all land mass on earth was one huge content Pangea and over the course of time it separated the continents broke off of Africa and drifted away... So how is it that people can't understand that before slavery.... Before the separation of the massive land mass Africans traveled miles and miles to north America which wouldn't actually be impossible to do since the distance would have been closer prior to the separation especially if it was don't within each generation... They traveled then settled down.... Then say during the next generation circumstances led them to travel again and that kept happening over and over.... Therefore the original dark skinned native americansoriginally came from Africa.... When the white man discovered them he mixed his seed with theirs and over the generations they got lighter and lighter... Understand that you can always get a lighter colored person from a darker colored person however you will never get a dark skinned person from a white person ... My husband has Choctaw blood his grandmother is full Choctaw.... He has brown skin with a rich red undertone... Of course he has black in him... But his Choctaw features are very strong... So no one is trying to steal any history about one of the 5 civilized tribes we just want to clarify who they are cause there are a lot of ignorant minds that just truly don't know

Is interesting that newspaper accounts of the day mention him as being half white. Is also somewhat amusing that each of the Five Civilized Tribes I think would claim they were the most advanced :) The Mississippi Choctaw did get screwed the worst during removal, US citizenship didn’t do them much good when they were left landless and broke. It’s remarkable how they have thrived since reorganization, a 100 years late but maintaining identity and culture through the darkest times is something to be proud of. That and hands down Mississippi Choctaw are the best stick ball players. Have they ever lost to an Oklahoma Band or Tribe?

      multiple tribes make a nation. The mississippians culture is a part of the nation of mound builders that stretched throughout a large portion of America. these people were able to communicate with one another. there was massive trade that happened on the mississippi river. there were also roads that stretched through out the midwest and eastern parts of what we call the united states. these people were civilized and dealt with one another.

    The Choctaw Tribe is not a race. No matter what your ancestry, you are not Choctaw unless the tribe recognizes you as Choctaw.
    Mainly for people in comments who like to claim they are Choctaw because their grandmother wore topaz jewelry all the time.

      Exactly, how can I go about becoming part of the tribe? I was very ethically hungry my freshman year of college last year and found out that my grandfather mother is full blooded Choctaw as well as her family. My grandfather dad is black. Which would be mixing. My dad probably have more Choctaw blood than me of course and he has very fine hair, everywhere. It grows like crazy and I have that as well. Ik probably 2/4 Choctaw maybe, waiting on my DNA results now!

      If you got corralled on a reservation, your knowledge is restricted concerning our ancestors that refused imprisonment! I would like to know when did the Choctaw become Mongol looking Mexicans, but then, it's like everything else culture vultures and land thieves have confiscated under this fiat government.
