Half of Oklahoma may be new Indian Territory

This is interesting.

Also a question - are non natives living in tribal land under tribal jurisdiction?

Lack of precedent. Non-natives can’t live on reservations.

That is false. Oglala Lakota County, SD is fully on a reservation but is only 94% native. Corson County is also entirely on a reservation but is only 61% native.

Hmmm, so then my parents lied about where they lived from 1983 to 1992 and I have false memories of living there?

No, it just wasn’t a real reservation. It was a federally-deemed reservation, and I do not recognize the legitimacy of the authority of the unelected bureaucracy and Department of the Interior.

So under this criteria, wouldn't this new reservation be "federally-deemed" according to you?
