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. -

Reconstruction in the Chickasaw Nation
RECONSTRUCTION IN THE CHICKASAW NATION, 1865-1877 By PARTHENA LOUISE JAMES Bachelor of Arts Oklahoma State University Stillwater, Oklahoma 1963 Submitted to the faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May, 1967 1n«iR~ STArE -ilwtlfflfftf L~S!Ft,A~Yf JAN 10 M 1865-1877 Thesis Approved: .na Dean of the~--- Graduate College 358863 ii PREFACE The Chickasaw Indians have the doubtful honor of being remembered by historians as the smallest and most warlike of the Five Civilized Tribes . 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. -

A Native History of Kentucky
A Native History Of Kentucky by A. Gwynn Henderson and David Pollack Selections from Chapter 17: Kentucky in Native America: A State-by-State Historical Encyclopedia edited by Daniel S. Murphree Volume 1, pages 393-440 Greenwood Press, Santa Barbara, CA. 2012 1 HISTORICAL OVERVIEW As currently understood, American Indian history in Kentucky is over eleven thousand years long. Events that took place before recorded history are lost to time. With the advent of recorded history, some events played out on an international stage, as in the mid-1700s during the war between the French and English for control of the Ohio Valley region. Others took place on a national stage, as during the Removal years of the early 1800s, or during the events surrounding the looting and grave desecration at Slack Farm in Union County in the late 1980s. Over these millennia, a variety of American Indian groups have contributed their stories to Kentucky’s historical narrative. Some names are familiar ones; others are not. Some groups have deep historical roots in the state; others are relative newcomers. All have contributed and are contributing to Kentucky's American Indian history. The bulk of Kentucky’s American Indian history is written within the Commonwealth’s rich archaeological record: thousands of camps, villages, and town sites; caves and rockshelters; and earthen and stone mounds and geometric earthworks. After the mid-eighteenth century arrival of Europeans in the state, part of Kentucky’s American Indian history can be found in the newcomers’ journals, diaries, letters, and maps, although the native voices are more difficult to hear. -
