- Els lliberts choctaw eren esclaus afroamericans que formaren part de la Nació Choctaw d'Oklahoma quan foren emancipats després de la Guerra Civil dels Estats Units, un requeriment del tractat que els Estats Units van imposar als choctaws en 1866. Els choctaws havien lluitat al costat de la Confederació durant la guerra. "Lliberts" (anglès freedmen) és un dels termes donats a les persones recentment emancipades després que l'esclavitud va ser abolida als Estats Units. Els lliberts choctaws van ser adoptats per la Nació Choctaw en 1885. Igual que altres tribus, els choctaws havien mantingut com a esclaus captius de guerra. A mesura que van adoptar elements de la , com ara granges i plantacions més grans, van començar a adaptar el seu sistema per un de dels treballadors esclaus d'ascendència africana. Moshulatubbee tenia esclaus, igual que molts dels europeus, en general els comerciants de pells que es van casar en la Nació Choctaw. Les famílies Folsom i Leflore eren alguns dels plantadors que tenien el major nombre d'esclaus. L'esclavitud va durar en la Nació Choctaw fins a 1866. Els antics esclaus de la Nació Choctaw serien anomenats lliberts choctaw. Entre les famílies d'ascendència africana i amb estatut de llibertat dins la Nació Choctaw en el moment de la deportació fou la família Beams. (ca)
- The Choctaw freedmen are former enslaved African Americans who were emancipated and granted citizenship in the Choctaw Nation after the Civil War, according to the tribe's new peace treaty with the United States. The term also applies to their contemporary descendants. Like other American Indian tribes, the Choctaw had customarily held Indian slaves as captives from warfare. As they adopted elements of European culture, such as larger farms and plantations, the elite began to adapt their system to purchasing and holding chattel slave workers of African-American descent. Moshulatubbee held slaves, as did many of the European men, generally fur traders, who married into the Choctaw nation. The Folsom and Greenwood LeFlore families were wealthy Choctaw planters who held the most slaves at the time of Indian Removal and afterward. After signing the treaty for Removal, LeFlore withdrew from the Choctaw Nation to stay in Mississippi and take US and state citizenship. He owned 15,000 acres of plantation and 400 enslaved African Americans. Slavery lasted in the Choctaw Nation until after their signing of the 1866 Reconstruction Treaty. The emancipation and citizenship of the enslaved were requirements of the 1866 treaty that the US made with the Choctaw. The U.S. required a new treaty because the Choctaw had sided with the Confederate States of America during the American Civil War. The Confederacy had promised the Choctaw and other tribes of Indian Territory an exclusively Native American state if it won the war. Former slaves of the Choctaw Nation were called the Choctaw freedmen, comparable to the African-American freedmen in the United States. They differed in that numerous people also had mixed Choctaw and/or European ancestry (the latter was also true of African Americans in the US). At the time of Indian Removal, the Beams family was a part of the Choctaw Nation. They were thought to have been of African descent and also free. The Choctaw Freedmen were officially adopted as full members into the Choctaw Nation in 1885. In 1983, a requirement for blood relationship was added to the Nation's constitution, excluding many Choctaw Freedmen from membership. As of 2021, the Choctaw Freedmen are still fighting for equal legal status in the tribe, as they believe they have been limited to second-class status. The Freedmen argue that the tribe has not honored the 1866 treaty. They asked Congress to withhold funding until these tribes address freedmen citizenship. By 2021, only the Cherokee Nation had updated their constitution to accept as citizens those persons who cannot prove blood descent but have ancestors registered with the Dawes Commission. (en)
