Native americans had slaves? Do you have any references to put in perspective and counter right wing boot licking perspectives on this matter? Like the issue is feudalism and capitalism/imperialism at the core. Like the natives had conflict... possibly scalped a few but I think the right wing on behalf of their "Yes big daddy" capo corpo masters like to paint images of a past a skew.

Yes the Five Civilized Tribes of Oklahoma had slaves and sided with the confederates due to self-preservation. Obviously not on the scale as the deep south and there was division in their ranks about that.
