Choctaw

Horatio Bardwell Cushman wrote in his 1899 book “History of the Choctaw, Chickasaw, and Natchez Indians”: “The tradition of the Choctaws . . . told of a race of giants that once inhabited the now State of Tennessee, and with whom their ancestors fought when they arrived in Mississippi in their migration from the west. … Their tradition states the Nahullo (race of giants) was of wonderful stature.

Cushman said “Nahullo” came to be used to describe all white people, but it originally referred specifically to a giant white race with whom the Choctaw came into contact when they first crossed the Mississippi River. The Nahullo were said to be cannibals whom the Choctaw killed whenever the opportunity arose.

GIANTS IN THE BIBLE (AND BEYOND)

Dale Pollard “The Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bore children to them; the same were the mighty men that were of old, the men of renown.”  (Gen.6.4). “And there we saw the Nephilim, the sons of Anak who come of the Nephilim; and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their…

Reason why I get the feels over Black Panther.

As a Choctaw Native American, Black Panther made me cry. I not only see beautiful tradition and overall respectful view of brown people, I related to Erik too much. Like Erik, I crave that home, a Wakanda, yet have that bitterness. I know that estrangement. I'm from Oklahoma (the home of those that travelled The Trail of Tears) and The Choctaw in Mississippi (where our nation originated from) do NOT see us as them or even welcome us exploring our history there. My great grandmother was the last one of my family to know any of the Choctaw language. She forced to attended one of those "Americanization" schools and was beat if she tried to speak it because it was shameful to know and it was a lot easier than what the "nahullo (basically, white man)" would do outside the school yard. She wouldn't teach my grand mother anything, and even tried very hard to put an aversion of "acting anything Native" into all of her children. My grand mother is full blood, so it didn't matter back then whether she knew her culture or not, she was still "a /sq/uaw/ (what non natives call native women meaning p*ssy or b*tch)". The feeling of shame for being brown is still strong in my family. I'm a quarter and pretty pale, ghost compared to full-blood no kidding, so some in the tribe don't see me as native and act like I'm being an entitled fake ("I'm the descendant of a Cherokee PRINCESS" as the stereotype goes). There are those that want to be Native American just because of the benifets the Native American nations give their people. And there are gatekeepers in every group. I wouldn't pay any mind to that if it wasn't for the whole without other races mixing in our own, there would be none of us left. That estrangement and scar is so fresh and new, my GRANDMOTHER could have learned from a fluent mother that still knew the tradition. The only native things I have from Emaline Baker are 2 words (nahullo and I think it's pronounced "fu-ka-to-i" It's turkey.), and a fry bread recipe.

His anger and feelings for Wakanda and people rattles something in my bones with familiarity it hurts. It's not the same I know. It'll never be the same, but it feels good to see something I can racially relate to, even if it's vague.

LOS GIGANTES DE AMÉRICA.

TRIBUS NORTE AMÉRICA.

La historia de gigantes que deambularon la tierra, aparece desde textos biblicos hasta las diferentes mitologías mundiales, según historias los autóctonos del continente hoy América.

La antigua raza de gigantes blancos descrita en las leyendas de diversas tribus nativas americanas, tales como;

1- Arapajos.

2- Sioux.

3- Comanches.

4- Natchez,

entre otras diferentes tribus han transmitido de generación en generación leyendas de una raza de gigantes blancos que fue exterminada. Repasaremos a continuación algunas de estas antiguas leyendas,  especialmente de los Choctaw y los Comanches de norte america.

Choctaw.

Horacio Bardwell Cushman escribe en su libro de 1899 “Historia de los indios Choctaw, Chickasaw y Natchez”. En relatos de la tradición de los Choctaw, habla de una raza de gigantes que habitaba en el pasado en lo que hoy es el estado de Tennesse, y a quienes sus antepasados combatieron cuando llegaron al Mississippi tras emigrar hacia el oeste. Su tradición sostiene que el pueblo Nahullo (raza de gigantes) era de una estatura grandiosa.”

Cushman explica en su libro que “Nahullo” era un término utilizado habitualmente para referirse al hombre blanco, pero que en su origen designaba específicamente a una raza de gigantes blancos con los que los Choctaw entraron en contacto cuando cruzaron el Mississippi por primera vez. Cuentan las leyendas que los Nahullo eran caníbales, y los Choctaw para defenderse les mataban siempre que tenían ocasión.

GIGANTES VISTO POR MAGALLANES.

Fernando de Magallanes que fue navegante y pionero que sircundo la tierra, pero al atravesar el estreche diviso una tribu de gigantes en la actual Patagonia y este nombre deriva de patagon(pies grandes).

Magallanes nos narra que un día vio un hombre de tamaño descomunal, al resto de los hombre comunes, nuestras cabezas le llegaban a su cintura, los ojos con un aro amarillo alrededor, sólo tenia un tapa rabo y una capa de piel de animal, sus calzados del mismo material, nos miro apunto con el dedo indice hacia el cielo, le dijimos que no e hicimos amistad con el y su tribu.

Llevaba en la mano izquierda un arco corto y macizo, cuya cuerda, un poco más gruesa que la de un laúd, había sido fabricada de una tripa del mismo animal; y en la otra mano, flechas de caña, cortas, en uno de cuyos extremos tenían plumas, como las que nosotros usamos, y en el otro, en lugar de hierro, la punta de una piedra de chispa, matizada de blanco y negro.

Why are Native Americans so interested in wolves?

Oh, I love this question!

I’ve actually mentioned this as a sidebar or digression in various answers on this forum over the years. But, it’s probably interesting enough that it should be a stand alone question and answer.

Okay, now here’s the deal —

Native Americans are not really “into” wolves.

It’s actually an odd sub-group of White Americans that are “into” wolves, or more specifically… they are into Natives being into wolves.

See, there’s a phenomenon of White Americans that have lore of Cherokee or “Native American” blood. A subset will then build up a pseudo-identity as Native, and many will create or join fake tribes, or participate in fake Native-esque “cultural” events (like fake powwows or whatnot). They, for some odd reason, begin to get very much “into” wolves. Apparently, wolves have an association with Native Americans, for them. I’m not sure why this it’s like it, but it’s just something I’ve noticed over the years.

So, at some point, they’ll pick some name like “Spirit Wolf” and they’ll gravitate to art like this:

*These are all painted by White people, by the way. Natives don’t paint this shit.

And they’ll wear tee shirts like this:

Some will even get tattoos, like this:

And they all post this bullshit:

The reality is this is not a Native proverb, but rather is a fabrication by White people…used to tell a story in allegoric fashion - and the Native-theme is just the rhetorical device. It was first popularized by preacher Billy Graham, and it was ascribed to various/different tribes over the years. But, again, it’s NOT a native story anyway.

You know what is very funny too?

There are 500+ tribal nations, so there’s a variety of beliefs and stories, but I’ve never really come across any Native cultures where the wolf is seen as some special or highly revered animal. In my tribe, there aren’t really many stories of wolves at all, and they certainly aren’t regarded over and above any other species. They are just one animal among many, in a larger web of life. There is none of this wolf fetishizing anyway. And from what I gather about other tribes, it’s a similar situation.

Again, it’s a subset of White people that have created this Native and Wolf trope.

But, to really understand what I’m talking about, I think we need to look at a specific case.

Okay, here ya go…

This is Sandra Piovesan.

Sandra was a White woman from Pennsylvania that had lore of “Native American blood.” And in an effort to get more in touch with her Native “heritage.” She started getting into wolves. You can see in this photo of her that she was dressed as the “Native maiden with wolves” character in the art above.

Basically, she went out at found Wolf-Dogs that were only a tiny fraction dog, and high 90th percentile wolf. She built up her own pack, and claimed to have a spiritual connection with them. I guess they didn’t get that memo, that they were all spiritually bonded, and they actually killed her.

You can watch the episode of Fatal Attractions (“Don’t Feed the Bears”) on Amazon, or here’s a ripped version currently on Youtube.

Now, as you go through it, pay attention to all this sub-cultural stuff that is White cultural phenomenon, and even the fake “Sioux” medicine man, “Running Bear.”

This is what Natives refer to as crazy yoneg, bilagaana, wasicu, nahullo, zhaaganaash, etc. stuff.

Finally, let me leave you with some real Native humor here:
