Ok, be being 1/4 … Ok, be being 1/4 Blackfeet on my grandmother’s side, what ticks me off, and totally unfair is how, even to this day, natives are discriminated on a daily basis! It’s FINE, for anyone to make all the jokes they choose to about natives, but on the same note, God forbid, ANYONE, to say a negative remark, or make a joke about a black, hispanic, or jew! It’s total buffalo shit!

The Indian Removal Act became law. This law made it legal to remove Native Americans from their land in the southeast. Indians were rounded up by soldiers and forced to march long distances to reservations. Many Indians died on these journeys.
Because of the Indian Removal Act, many Native Americans began to refer to themselves as “colored” or “mulatto” to avoid removal. Therefore, the former Saponi were forced to take English names. The descendents of the Ohio River Valley Sioux are now called Blackfoot Band of the Saponi Nation of Ohio, Inc.
“Saponi Indians of Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Southeast Kentucky, Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania referred to themselves as Catawba or Blackfoot of the Saponi Nation. About 1870, a small number of Saponi known as the Catawba Indians, settled on the Saponi Reservation in Greenville County, Virginia”.
where are the … where are the blackfoot, and the blackfeet from? would any of the two for any reason migrate to the east in the old days like north carolina and such areas?
