Home in the Choctaw Diaspora
HOME IN THE CHOCTAW DIASPORA: SURVIVAL AND REMEMBRANCE AWAY FROM NANIH WAIYA By Jason Lewis Submitted to the graduate degree program in Global Indigenous Nations Studies and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. ________________________________ Chairperson Stacy Leeds ________________________________ Sherrie Tucker ________________________________ Sharon O’Brien Date Defended: May 16, 2011 The Thesis Committee for Jason Lewis certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: HOME IN THE CHOCTAW DIASPORA: SURVIVAL AND REMEMBRANCE AWAY FROM NANIH WAIYA ________________________________ Chairperson Stacy Leeds Date approved: May 16, 2011 ii ABSTRACT This thesis analyzes oral histories collected from Choctaw people since their displacement away from Nanih Waiya, to look for an understanding of Home and the formations of Home that have enabled Choctaw identities over time. Oral sources were reviewed from four collections that represent distinct spatial and temporal Choctaw perspectives, located at the Alabama Department of Archives and History, the Western History Collections at the University of Oklahoma, the Samuel Proctor Oral History Program at the University of Florida, and the Center for Oral and Public History at California State University, Fullerton. The Choctaw values of survival and remembrance are so consistent in the analysis, that significant material formations observed in these collections are made meaningful by their relation to these values. Findings have been used to develop a narrative from a diasporic perspective that is rooted in the decolonization project of critically rereading history. Through oral sources and theoretical framing, the voices of Choctaw people contribute to and challenge colonial, postcolonial, and decolonization discourses. -
Developing Sovereignty: Choctaw Reconfigurations of Culture and Politics Through Econom
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles (Re)Developing Sovereignty: Choctaw Reconfigurations of Culture and Politics through Economic Development in Oklahoma A thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts in American Indian Studies by Megan Alexandria Baker 2017 ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS (Re)Developing Sovereignty: Choctaw Reconfigurations of Culture and Politics through Economic Development in Oklahoma by Megan Alexandria Baker Master of Arts in American Indian Studies University of California, Los Angeles, 2017 Professor Jessica R. Cattelino, Chair To counteract their historical erasure and economic marginalization within American settler society, the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma repurposes economic development robustly. Choctaw sovereignty, reinvigorated by economic development, enables the Nation to assert their political presence in ways that have transformed southeastern Oklahoma economically. Ethnographic examination of Chahta Anumpa Aiikhvna (School of Choctaw Language) and the history of Chahta anumpa (Choctaw language) in Oklahoma demonstrates how Choctaw Nation has accomplished both of these things. Additionally, this thesis critically examines Choctaw citizens’ complex experiences with economic development, which are shaped by a continual process of ii Indigenous dispossession. Understanding how these experiences and histories link together in turn opens up alternative possibilities for Choctaw futures grounded in Choctaw ways of life. iii The thesis of Megan Alexandria Baker is approved. -

As Chief of our Nation hearing the successes of our people is a joy and inspiration, and hear- ing the needs of people motivates me to work harder and be more innovative in providing ways to create better opportunities for our people. This last year has been focused on sustaining our Nation, our culture and our sovereignty with our eye to the future. A tremendous amount of planning and strategy has taken place to ensure that we have opportunities for our tribal members. New facilities are being built to better serve the Chahta people and approximately 1,000 new jobs have been added for a third year in a row. The hope is that a bright future lies ahead for our Nation—a future that holds prosperity for our children and many more generations to come, generations that I hope will live out the Chah- ta spirit of faith, family and culture.
