Did You Know Native Americans Owned Slaves?
A fact that is conveniently overlooked by those calling for reparations.
Elizabeth Warren got some ‘splaining to do!
The 13th Amendment did not free all slaves in the boundaries of modern-day US. Members of five Native American nations, the Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Creek, and Seminole Nations (known as the Five Tribes), owned black slaves. Located outside the territorial boundaries of the US in a region known as Indian Territory (modern-day Oklahoma), these sovereign nations were not affected by proclamations or constitutional amendments. Instead, separate treaties had to be made between the US and these Native American nations not only to free slaves, but also to formally end the American Civil War battles and antagonism between American and Native American troops.
