Oklahoma means ‘red people’ in Choctaw, a name selected by Choctaw Chief Allen Wright in 1866.

Will the politically correct demand that Oklahoma change its name too?

David Yeagley, Commanche, Conservative Patriot, may he rest in peace, spoke out on this subject very eloquently from an Indian POV - he considered the elimination of Indian team names as Anti-Indian Warrior. This column is worth the read if you want to hear from someone who had great insight on this and so many issues. (I miss you, David).
