this is another state I have yet to visit
the name is from native meaning red peoples land

lots of cattle there
humans have lived there since the ice age
as an eastern band member it saddens me that many of my relations were forced there
its called the sooner state because of the people who basically cheated during the land rush
Oklahoma is home to one of the most egregious instances of race war in American history
an act so damaging that AA oklahomans are still affected by it today and which at the time destroyed one of black Americas proudest populations,a group that was so successful the term black wall street was invented to describe it
Oklahoma today has interests in communications, food production ,aviation and electronics to name but a few
Oklahoma is a leader in wind generated power
