    Very good news for the #Freedmen of the #Muskogee / #Creek Nation.

    Now it is time for the #Chickasaw, and #Choctaw nations to grant their Freedmen citizenship rights, and for the #Seminole nation to lift their freedmen citizens from their current second-class citizenship status.

  5. "Join Michael in his discussion with Professor #JusteneHillEdwards about her powerful new book, #SavingsAndTrust: The Rise and Betrayal of the Freedman's Bank. Created after the Civil War, the #FreedmansBank was where tens of thousands of formerly enslaved people placed their savings only to have them stolen by corrupt white bankers."

  10. Book talk

    "On February 10, 2025, historian #JusteneHillEdwards, was in conversation with Rethinking Schools editor Jesse Hagopian. They discussed Edwards’ book, "#SavingsAndTrust: The Rise and Betrayal of the #FreedmansBank", a comprehensive account of the Freedman’s Bank and its depositors"

  11. Good news but unfortunately the Muskogee Nation AG says he will be appealing the decision to the Muskogee Suprem Court.

    Sad that this litigation is necessary to ensure that the Muskogee Nation honors its treaty obligations to the descendants of those formerly enslaved by the nation, the Freedmen.

    Unfortunately the Muskogee Nation like several other tribal nations in Oklahoma is still drinking the Kool-Aid of racism.

  12. The excellent St Louis Library Past Portals topic this month is the Freedmen's Bureau. If you have any former enslaved persons in your family check it out. @geneadons #Genealogy #FamilyHistory #Enslaved #AfricanAmericanHistory #Freedmen

  13. Start 2023 out right, follow a #Native #Indigenous person on #Mastodon today, now!

    Even better follow 5 or 10 or 20.

    Or best choice, follow every #Native #Indigenous person you can find!

    Shout out hashtags:
    #Native #Indigenous #NDN #Freedmen #BIPOC #NativeMastodon #IndigenousMastodon #FreedmenMastodon

  14. A lot of non-Natives fear #LandBack, concerned Native gov'ts would treat them the same way Colonial gov'ts treat Natives.

    Truth be told though, #LandBack would be the best thing to ever happen to Natives and non-Natives.

    #LandBack is best for everyone, and especially the planet itself.

  15. How do you say your non-profit organization has all white leadership, mostly white management, and a high degree of white culture permeating the whole organization, without saying it directly?

    Say: Our mission is to the inner city...

  16. So there are what, over 11K Mastodon instances & less than 20 BIPOC-owned instances?!?

    Correct me if these numbers are wrong. This is totally unscientific, just a perception of North America.

    Update: It would be interesting to see estimates for non-North American instances & BIPOC-ownership.

    I guess there is no need for a #WhiteMastodon hashtag, the whole #Fediverse is almost all white dominated.
