Creole Indians, The West Feliciana Houma-Choctaw People

"The term"tri-racial isolates" is distasteful today, but its existence is part of history that we must recognize....

"As details have fallen together, it has become apparent that the isolate groups are, in fact, remnant Native American communities that have remained outside the official system of recognized tribes."   (Ned Heite)

PUBLISHERS NOTE:  As many of you have already figured out, Corruption Sucks Blog is one of the earliest of worldwide syndicated anti-corruption blog site.  It is literally real-time publishing, accessible to millions, averaging well over 3,000 hits per day. Our readership of our humble blog spans across every corner of the globe. 

We NEVER publish anything without first making sure that to the best of our abilities, it is accurate. Then we start DYING for at least ONE corrupt piece of crap to finally be compelled to MAKE US PROVE IT!  we've been publishing anti-corruption articles in one way or another since 2003, hoping a corrupt loser will ultimately take us up on the offer- THEY NEVER DO. 

This anti-corruption approach began in 2003 with one tribal band addressing various disagreements with less than savory Jim Crow era, Good 'ol boy cronies standing in the way of our self determination. Ultimately, our clan and now our entire tribal nation & territorial citizenry have become involved in our rightful efforts.  We have collectively chosen to address our grievances of the individual or government in this particular manner for many reasons. Sometimes, we may tell you what they are. But you can be assured that it always begins as a reaction to corrupt barriers to equal access to federally funded resources.

Don't get us wrong, we are willing & DO coordinate with good government.  What's "good" government? Doing your damn job above all else & straight across the board for EVERYONE, no matter what your personal feelings may happen to be.

Creoles, Creole-Indians and so-called tri-racial isolates have existed "between-the-races" for over 11 generations in this New World.  Many racialists (those that believe in a silly concept of "race") only love to acknowledge this & us when it is convenient for them.  When it is not convenient, they insultingly "racialize" the Creole later, hoping to gain some "race" oriented advantage by invoking deep-seeded Jim Crow styled xenophobia against the American Creole on any which side of the so-called racial lines. 

Not all Creoles are Creole Indian.  

BUT ALL Creole Indians are Creole, as such, we embrace ALL of our Creole cousins, brothers and sisters within our territory and without.

Why is this important you may ask?  Because Creoles as a culture, are nowhere close to being a world-wide minority, that's why.  

The Bordeaux Band of the Creole Houma-Choctaw People command INDISPUTABLE aboriginal sovereign rights.  We DO NOT abdicate or defer these rights because we are involved in commerce with the public or governments. 

The State of Arkansas Officially acknowledged these indigenous ethnic group rights by way of the Arkansas Department of Education in 2005 after a year-long, highly intensive and exhaustive Equity Assistance Center (EAC) investigatory review.

Prophetically, the United States Government has even recently seen fit to recognize the Houma-Choctaw People, by way of their reforms of recognition at their Bureau of Indian Affairs. Bully for them, better late than never. We have never sought aid from any government, only the due respect of recognition and sovereignty, indeed.
