Description
Indian Territory: Surviving 160 Acres of Betrayal is the true story of a Mvskoke family's dispossession-and the larger untold history of Tulsa, Oklahoma. A state of corruption born by the deeds of dishonest men. Written as a historical memoir, this book journeys through the Allotment Era to expose how so-called "progress" stripped Native families of land, language, wealth, and culture. Shrouded by mysterious deaths and legal deceit, the story centers on two young Mvskoke sisters-still only pre-teen girls-forced to shoulder a battle no child should face as their Creek-speaking father struggled to defend them.Guardians and Tulsa County courts seized the land they owned, the house their father built, and the wealth they had begun to build-funneling it into guardianships that left the family impoverished.Both an intimate family history and an unflinching indictment of the laws and institutions that turned survival into a legal battleground, this book reclaims a chapter of American history too long ignored.A story of dispossession, survival, and generational resilience told by the bloodline who endured it, Indian Territory gives voice to one family's fight-and to countless others silenced across Indian Territory.
