“Justice for Black Creeks"
Creek Freedmen Descendants
Muscogee Creek Indian Freedmen Band
Due to anti-Black racism, tens of thousands of Black Creek Freedmen and their descendants have been kicked out of Oklahoma's Muscogee Creek Nation Tribe. Black Creeks, AKA Creek Freedmen and their descendants, were full citizens of the Creek Nation from the signing of the Creek Treaty of 1866 to 1979.
In 1979 the Muscogee Creek Nation established a new Constitution which eliminated the Freedmen and their descendants from citizenship by violating the 1866 treaty and laws governing the relationship between the United States Government and the Muscogee Creek Nation. The Government had a fiduciary responsibility to protect the citizens of the Muscogee Creek Nation classified as Creek Freedmen or descendants of Freedmen from this horrendous injustice. Unfortunately, no protection was extended to the Creek Freedmen and their descendants. Sadly, the Government approved the 1979 constitution, eradicating the Creek Freedmen and their descendants from the MCN Tribe.
The MCIFB is a 501 C 3 organization officially incorporated in 2008; however, the MCIFB has been a dominant presence in the community educating and fighting for the Treaty Rights of all Creek Freedmen descendants since 2002. We have sought to preserve and protect the unique history and culture of the people known as Creek Freedmen.
Would you please sign this petition and reach out to the Muscogee Creek Nation Chief, the Federal Government, your U.S. House Representatives, and U.S. Senators and demand Justice for Black Creeks?
