Mvskoke Language Symposium: An Elder Conversation

[@heatherlong2478]

I am privileged to be a part of the Muskogee Indians❤It is my honor to help other generations understand the incredible contribution of the Muscogee Indians. Through seeking, I will find a way to contribute to what is my culture.❤

I grew up in Alabama and remember learning about the Creeks in school. Thank you for sharing your language with us. It is fascinating.

beautiful! Muscogee Native American here. From Okmulgee. My great great Grandmother was Cinda Hill.

[@andrewfreiji4647]

What percentage native American are you

[@speedflash55]

That's my last name. Also my great grandmothers last name is whipple, but she was adopted i believe. Her race was mulatto.

[@utopiaOKC]

​@@speedflash55fyi, dont ever call a mixed person a mulatto. We dont like that word my brother.

[@speedflash55]

​@utopia4056 True. I don't mean to be offensive, but that's in my great grandmother's census. I'm black. She was the only light person in the black family. But I don't know my ancestors all too well. They've never talked of the past which is another thing. I would've thought that word died out and no longer offensive since I don't hear it at all.

@@andrewfreiji4647 I am only a quarter. My moms half and my grandma was full muscogee :)

[@heatherlong2478]

Very Beautiful ❤

I hope to learn my ancestors language before I pass. Thank you for this vid.

[@utopiaOKC]

[@elloco7429]

@utopia4056 I'm officially White, and I'm okay with it.

[@utopiaOKC]

Would love to see the transcript of this conversation

[@patriciahill398]

I really like to listen to people who talks creek words sing Creek songs

[@manuellubian5709]

It would have been nice IF you allowed subtitle captions, for younger generations and those trying to learn the mother tongue. Sad.
