Creek Native

Everyone has, at one time, or another witnessed something that they can’t explain. Maybe felt the presence or heard voices of someone or something when alone. Or, perhaps seen something in the woods that, in their mind, shouldn’t exist. Imagine hiking along a favorite trail, just you and your Labrador, when suddenly, an eight-foot-tall creature covered in dark hair from head to footsteps into the trail in front of you. Your dog, usually scared of nothing, cowers behind you, whimpering. The creature notices you, turns, glowers and charges. You have no way to defend yourself. You close ...

Yet this equality was shredded in the 1970s when tribal leaders revoked the citizenship of Black Creeks, even those who could trace their history back generations—even to Cow Tom himself.
