  • Cherokee Nation and Chickasaw Nation Criminal Jurisdiction Compacting Act of 2021
    Cherokee Nation and Chickasaw Nation Criminal Jurisdiction Compacting Act of 2021 Language Explainer This fact sheet summarizes, section-by-section, proposed Federal legislation relating to the Cherokee and Chickasaw Nations. If enacted, this bill would strengthen Tribal self- determination and empower Tribal-State partnerships by authorizing those Nations to compact with Oklahoma respecting criminal jurisdiction. The bill is proposed after consultation with those Nations and upon their request. Further, Oklahoma government officials have previously called for or otherwise offered public support for the approach integrated to this bill. Section 1 (Title) – Consistent with the bill’s scope and purpose, it is titled “Cherokee Nation and Chickasaw Nation Criminal Jurisdiction Compacting Act of 2021.” Section 2 (Definitions) – This section offers operative definitions for key terms in the bill, two of which are particularly important to the scope of its central authorization to compact. “Indian country” is defined by reference to statute, but “Indian land” is defined to include only lands universally understood to be “Indian country” prior to the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in McGirt—lands such as Tribal trust land, restricted allotments, and so-called dependent Indian communities. As such, “Indian land” is a subset of “Indian country,” and as provided in later sections, no authority would be granted to affect by compact any jurisdiction on “Indian lands.” Section 3 (Findings) – The findings clarify the bill’s intent and purpose. Consistent with Federal law, they acknowledge each Nation’s reservation as “Indian country” for purposes of criminal jurisdiction. The findings note ongoing intergovernmental work to enhance Tribal-State coordination in reservation law enforcement and particularly commend the use of compacting for purposes of supporting Tribal self-determination and intergovernmental cooperation.

  • “The Golden Days”: Taylor and Mary Ealy, Citizenship, and the Freedmen of Chickasaw Indian Territory, 1874–77
    THE CHRONICLES OF OKLAHOMA “The Golden Days”: Taylor and Mary Ealy, Citizenship, and the Freedmen of Chickasaw Indian Territory, 1874–77 By Ellen Cain* On a Monday morning in fall 1874, twenty-six-year- old Taylor Ealy felt despondent. He had recently completed an ambi- tious educational program that included college, seminary, and medi- cal school, yet he was confused about the direction of his future. He longed for the bold, adventurous life of a Presbyterian missionary, not the tame existence he now led as a Pennsylvania preacher. Ealy went to his room on that Monday morning, dropped to his knees, and prayed, “Lord, what wilt Thou have me to do—send me anywhere. Show me my work.” The answer came swiftly, the very same day, Ealy received a letter asking him to appear before the Northern Presbyterian Freed- men’s Bureau in Pittsburgh. When he arrived, the secretary of the bureau offered him a choice: to teach at a nearby theological seminary or at a government school for freedmen at Fort Arbuckle, Chickasaw Indian Territory (present-day south-central Oklahoma). Ealy knew immediately that he wanted the more challenging position in the West. 54 “THE GOLDEN DAYS” “I said I will take the harder field. I looked upon this as a direct answer to my prayer.”1 So it was that Taylor Ealy and his new bride, Mary Ramsey, set out for Indian Territory in October 1874. The Ealys carried with them a sincere and enthusiastic desire to aid the recently freed black slaves of the Chickasaw Nation. They labored in Indian Territory—a land of former Confederates—during the last years of Reconstruction.

Like so many other tribes, they were forced to leave their na­ tive homes and settle in Indian Territory as white c ivilization advanced ac ross the American, continent. Some twenty years after coming to their new lands , the lives of the Chickasaws were again interrupted. The Civil War broke out and the Chickasaws , almost unanimously, joined the Confederate States of Ame rica. They felt a strong sympathy for the Southern cause, since they not only owned Negro slaves which they had purchased wi_th money received from the sale of Southern Chickasaw lands, but also had many friends who joined the Confederate Army at the outbreak of the fighting. Th e purpose of t his thesis is to investigate the effec ts of the post-Civil War reconstruction period on the Chickasaws. The Chickasaws suffered little direc t damage from t he Ci vil War since there was but limited fighting within the Chickasaw Nation and the tribe was spared a division of opinion in choosing sides in the conflict.

  • Near the Edge: Language Revival from the Brink of Extinction
    NEAR THE EDGE: LANGUAGE REVIVAL FROM THE BRINK OF EXTINCTION James Rementer, Language Director The Delaware Tribe, Bartlesville, Oklahoma and Bruce L. Pearson, University of South Carolina 1. Introduction. The authors have spent close to forty years, individually and often collaboratively, working on three Native American languages. Our experiences are fairly typical of people who become involved in Indian languages, whether they are born into a tribal community or come as outsiders. The three languages are Delaware and Shawnee, both Algonquian, and Wyandotte, and Iroquoian language. Although the focus of this conference is on Algonquian languages, the threat of extinction is common to all native languages regardless of family identity. These three languages themselves represent different stages common to threatened languages and typical responses within threatened language communities. The last speaker of Wyandotte died some 50 years ago. Delaware now has but one living native speaker, an elderly man whose health no longer permits him to actively pass on the language. The language is preserved by a few adults who have acquired limited fluency in recent years. Only Shawnee has native speakers still living although all are above age fifty. The attitudes toward language revival and the programs adopted to preserve the language differ in each community. These differences are based largely on the perceived degree of endangerment and community assumptions about what can be done to preserve the language and, more importantly, what should be done. We will describe the situation in these three communities starting with the one in which we have had the longest and most extensive involvement and proceeding to those in which we have had a lesser degree of involvement.
