Cherokee would make sense in the South, largest surviving tribe in the usa and a large reservation in Oklahoma.
My cousin (by marriage) is an Ojibwa (aka Chippewa) and a Casino tribal member.
She's big into Native American culture, I got a kick out of it when she told me the Lakota (aka Sioux) disparagingly
refer to the Ojibwa as rabbit chokers.... so I now teasingly greet her with.... Hi Rabbit Choker.
A lot better then what our local tribe is referred to as.
Which tribe is your local tribe and who is it that is referring to them as what?
I can't remember what she said the Ojibwa refer to the Lakota as when an Ojibwa wants to insult the Lakota.
I thought the insults amusing and a bit surprised they still view tribal distinction when to average American an Indian
is an Indian. Few if any of them have anything good to say about their history in dealing with the federal government.
From my experience some of the meanest men I've ever met were Lakota when they were drunk. Firewater really changes their personalities.
