choctaw

I'm helping my 10-year-old son research one of the Mississippi Indian tribes, and we have chosen the Choctaws. In surfing the web for nearly two hours now, I've discovered many things. I'm not a native (by birth) of Mississippi, but grew up in Hattiesburg. I've always known the story of Chief Joseph and the Nez Perce, and I am amazed to find out that the Choctaw, too, journeyed on that trail of tears. It is a very sad story in American history, and I know how difficult life on the reservations have been. I am happy to see that your present Chief is visionary in helping to bring economic stability to the area. I think my son and I will visit the cultural museum for the Choctaw people this summer.
I'd love to have some pictures to help with my son's project. I have found no contact pages on the numerous sites I've been to, other than yours. If you have contact with any of the designers of the ones about the state, share with them how you created this one. Some browsers will not let you e-mail with your account (it must be a page set up like yours).
