I wasnt sure what rhis was about so i prayed about hoping to have another vistion And lets just say .... I did and thou i will hold fast what was revealed by these graudains for the celestial realm ....im to say nothing 'bc 'God is work ...

Good info. My grands, story was also buried. This was strategy to claim the assets(land) from the heirs of these people set up to be "abandoned" due to our ignorance.

So what are some ways I can find this out ? Many of my elders have passed a way so I’m searching for my heritage !

Very interesting,our family is from the Wichita Tribe

Our indigenous people know this history and are aware of Afro-indigenous and Africans that were adopted in our tribes, any history that involves our indigenous people has always been silenced hence people who actually think we went extinct! African history was spoke about more than us and for a good reason, not only was slaves prevalent but well known around the world and they also know Africans came via trans Atlantic. We have always been the threat to colonist since they arrived on turtle island. Clearly because they wanted our land and we were not going anywhere or giving up our ancestral lands we originated on. So they tried wiping us out, but that was never talked about either so welcome to our history. In fact Africans were able to vote before us! We have been silenced for a reason and that’s how you know that is our history! Our ancestors in Mexico help run away slaves escape in the under ground railroads to Mexico and Mexico being the first to abolish slavery. Keep in mind we are the first people of these lands and they enslaved us first, they also called us redskin “N” word as well. Again that’s not talked about either but certain groups will cherry pick what sounds good to them to make it about them knowing it happened to us first. Making claims they are the “Real indigenous” pushing not only African erasure by claiming they are not African but also indigenous erasure by trying to claim to be us! Only carrying on the colonists ideology of erasing both cultures and causing further division and opposition! We acknowledge our Afro-indigenous but the disrespectful rhetoric some are pushing with no evidence is no different than when the colonists tried pushing the same by claiming our ancestors ancient remains in “America” again before science advanced to the point DNA could be identified but science debunked that and the use of pseudoscience aka racial science, which again has been debunked with DNA. DNA is not fake FYI just to clear that up. It’s not able to tell you what tribe your from but it can show the region you originated on. People believe in DNA when it frees a loved one from prison or identifies your baby's dad or the one who did unspeakable acts or crimes to someone you love. The only difference between the one the government, state, or law enforcement use is it’s purpose it’s being used for. Using DNA to lock someone up is different from the test being used to see where your ancestors originated from, hence for “entertainment purposes only” Spreading propaganda dose nothing but cause harm, no one benefits from it and it changes nothing and never will, it just pushes people further away from reality and who they are. No one will ever take our culture by making outlandish claims. One thing it will do to the groups making up a false narrative is it weakens their communities rather they admit it or not. Educate yourself on real history with credible sources, evidence and scientific facts backing the claims up because the only lie is how colonizers told their side of the story with each culture they colonized and what they know would get the approval from their king or queen and to make it look justified. Hatred and racism has no place in a strong, powerful, intelligent and knowledgeable people, but it did start with colonists and will end with them. So stay blessed or oppressed the choice is yours! If you want to find treasure you have to dig for it, scratching the surface gets you nothing.

Pencil test bla bla bla

We First Nations took African Freedmen into Our Families. Red Man and Black Man have history with each other, good and/or bad. I don't want Wabos to sour our good history.

My friend, look up the term melungeon. My grandmother was a Freeman, from Richton Mississippi, we are melungeons. So are you, Freeman is an exclusive name of melugeon decent. It was a declaration made by men and women who were considered tri racial mixed. Cherokee and like your family Choctaw. The African contribution came in 1619 a ship carrying Anglican men , from mbundu. They referred to themselves as malunga, the term melungeons came years later when those men had children with natives and white European mixed people. By the 1640s enough free men of color existed that they passed legislation keeping them from owning land. Now comes the denial of color and heritage to hide from slavery and remain free, and to be able to own property, be exempted from the native trail of tears...it was out of these tri racial communities that our family name came to be. It is a tri racial declaration of freedom. And that is the most beautiful thing I know of! I hope you see this, I feel we might aid each other in decoding our pieces in the history books of america. Strangely , it is likely at some point we could even be related.

What a good thing to do! Thanks!

I think it would B a good book to read if U wrote a biography of Sallie Waltons life.

This woman has got to be a relative. My family is in Arkansas, Louisiana and my grandmothers mother was Oklahoma Choctaw and are relatives are Waltons wow

My 5th great grandmother was Hannah Choctaw,married to William s Beam. She was born about 1750 then died in South Carolina. She was full Choctaw. But I cannot find out which tribe she came from.

My family from Virginia and we are Cherokee,Choctaw,Chickasaws and Creeks.

You're wrong Blacks are a racist.

My ancestors come from Mississippi and Tennessee not one of my ancestors come from Africa as they love to say. This is our land and it was taken along with our identity....

Interesting. However, you are missing a very important piece. Slave often meant "employee." and most slaves were own by their family. farm owners used to register thier family members to ensure that no one could take them in the event of their death. your grandmother got that land because she is blood related. not slave related.

@estelusti Please tell us the name of your book <3

I am a PhD candidate in history, and my great-grandmother was 100% Choctaw (born on the Trail of Tears). My family knows very little of her, but my father's family is from Mississippi. As a historian and human, I have been trying to make connections through the Choctaw for years. As a historian and someone who is passionate about history, I want to know the stories of my (and these) people.

Thank you so very much for sharing this beautiful story. My grand mother was born in Oklahoma before state hood in 1905 in Langston Oklahoma. Thanks again...

No such person as a full black indian. Its known some tribes took slaves of any color. Some children adopted into tribe, thus if black. Any marriage their children would be half. Blood lines do die out. No black is full indian

Thank you

I will be getting your book!

Now we are learning that California was also a "Slave" state, and so were many Northern states as well. 😕

Thank you for this information of Choctaw and Chickasaw. My Grandmother was born in Louisiana from Bennett and Mack. I want to learn more.

The five Eastern Native tribes own black slaves. From what i heard, the black people traveled with the tribes to Oklahoma. Freeman. I think that DNA tests would determine better their percentage of Native ancestry. I have 1 niece who had 2 black children. Unfortunately, she passed, and the kids were raised with the black family. Im 100% native, DNA results and 4 tribal clans.

I ❤all my brothers,and sisters!⭕️

Great video my family are Ligons from South Carolina.. I would like to pick your brain for a bit lol

I just now got why elders didn’t bring that up: I wouldn’t want my youngins to know about that life either.

Show me a true slave picture but it has to be real you can't if you want to know the real story let me know

Slave pictures are and black and white cartoon not real photos slavery is fake

Thanks for sharing this information🤟🏿

We Hebrews

My 5th great grandfather Thomas Nash sued the Cherokee of Oklahoma using the governments Old settlers treaty for the rights of freedman & Natives. Who didn't go with their tribes on the trail of tears.. He passed away was unable and to finish the suit that took years in court. But his son Benjamin Nash picked it up after his dad's passing and won. My DNA matches show that I have DNA relatives with the surname she just mention. Moore , Campbell, Johnson, Lewis , Coleman. Not in my direct line. ( I don't believe anyhow) but distant cousins sharing a grandparent.. My family also started out in Virginia, NC, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Florida. Thomas Nash was also known as one of the first 5 or 6 biggest Cattlemen in Texas. He traveled around alot throughout Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma. His daughter married my Bass grandfather whose line goes back to Jamestown, Virginia to my 11th great grandmother who was a Nansemond Native American. I too have a book written by a distant cousin on my line. Who was a Geanologist and the Bass Native blood is well documented through court records. My grandfather had wrote in a journal he kept of his marriage to my Nansemond 11th great grandmother ( copy of his journal can be viewed in Virginia museum) he also had his children My grandfather certified in the courts as white and Native Indian and free men. He had to because people were prejudice toward them thinking they were Black people. One of his son's was shot in the hand for trying to buy gun powder. They thought he was black. That ended up in court also. My Bass line goes back to 1616 during the colonization day. Thanks for sharing this information. I have heard that some relatives keep claiming Choctaw also. This might explain why.

Thank you for sharing. I just found that I'm related to Alfred Wade and my Choctaw family has a cemetery called Wadesville Cemetery and freedmen who travelled to California

Is this Ligon line connected to Pamplion Ligon?

<3 love the video, we collect pre 1800s history on american indians of the south, feel free to stop by sometime.

For those who don't understand I am Choctaw half blooded but Blacks who claim they are Choctaw they are right and wrong at the same time back prior to the civil wars Choctaws we did in fact own slaves it's a harsh truth that Native American's try and cover up but during the Civil War Choctaws in both Mississippi and Oklahoma sided with the Confederates when the Confederates lost the war Choctaws were ordered by the US to free our slaves and give them citizenship into our tribe so we did and the decedents of those people are still members of the tribe many aren't anymore because now in order to become an enrolled member you have to be blood but so many freed men and women ended up having marriages with Choctaw men and women therefore there are a few black people who can claim blood descent

My family is from oakoholma and Choctaw

Nathaniel Ligon is my great great grandfather I just found out! Alberta Gunn is my great great grandmother

Your story is helping me find my story🙏🏾 thanks so much for posting this ♥️🚨‼️

We are the original Americans! Not this out of Africa theory BS

I'm proud to be one of those.

Slaves don't own Land. Soooooooooo

Thank you for sharing. It's so fascinating... i cannot believe at age 38 I'm just now learning about this. Thank you for taking the time to do the research and bring this piece of our nation's history to light.

Wow...lot of Jacksons over here as well as many other names. I have a neighbor with last name Lovelady; almost sure they are Indian and we have discussed it. He is in 80's. Tennessee area originally they said as well as my paternal grandfather. Heard of the Blackfoot, Cherokee and Mohawk on my maternal side. Alot of pictures people look like still mostly "Indian". Idk when we started looking so "African" but my generation sure does lol
