Some Oklahoma Indians won't be celebrating November 16, the 100th anniversary of Oklahoma's Statehood.
A group is organizing the Survival Walk and Protest on the Oklahoma Centennial. "We don't want people to forget how our ancestors were treated and brought here, that this was our land first," Brenda Golden told KOCO News.
The walk will start at 9am on Friday, November 16, at the State Capitol in Oklahoma City. For more information, visit http://www.myspace.com/mvskoke_lady
