Indian Nation
Project Overview
I am working on a documentary about the Indian Territory (now Oklahoma) between the time of removal from the 1830's up to the Civil War.. One of my objectives is to use the actual words of the Native American, White, and enslaved Blacks whose stories I will be telling, rather than talking heads 'explaining' what was happening at that time.
At present, I am creating only the opening and the first episode which I will use as a demo in order to seek grant funding to finish the project at a production grade level.

Speckled Snake was an actual Muskogee (Creek) chief from the early 1800's. Audition lines are excerpts from a speech he gave opposing the relocation of the Muskogees from the east to Indian Territory. In my documentary, his lines will be interwoven with lines spoken by Andrew Jackson creating a dialog between them.

"Brothers! We have heard the talk of our great father; it is very kind, he says he loves his red children.
"Brothers! I have listened to a great many talks from our great father. But they always begin and ended in this- "Get a little further, you are too near me."
[With sarcasm]Will not our great father come there also? He loves his red children. He speaks with a strait tongue, and will not lie.

[condescending tone] Friends and Brothers: By permission of the Great Spirit above, I have been made President of the United States, and now speak to you as your Father and friend.
Friends and brothers, listen: Where you now are, you and my white children are too near to each other to live in harmony and peace.
My children, listen. If you remove across the Mississippi, you will be subject to your own laws, and the care of your Father the President. You will be treated with kindness, and the lands will be yours forever
Issac Folsom was a Choctaw in the 1830's who wrote a poem about the sadness his people felt when they were removed from the South to Indian Territory. The audition lines are from the poem. It should be spoken slowly and solemnly.

Land where brightest waters flow, Land where loveliest flowers grow, Land where warriors drew the bow. Native land farewell.
