Thread on the #SupremeCourt #Oklahoma #CreekNation McGirt v. Oklahoma ruling today, because prior posts were made on my phone at work and therefore lacking.

This also provides a bit of Oklahoma history, by necessity.

To begin with: this is Oklahoma. Once upon a time, Andrew Jackson and other Presidents forced the removal of Native Americans into what was once called Indian Territory.

The territory was split roughly among the first several tribes to be removed here, with more being packed in later as the US moved West.
