    1. Re: [CHOCTAW] Also offended by the word!
    2. Hello everyone.. Because I was fortunate to find this site, I have learned an immense amount about native americans, inc , (and I am serious) how to correctly name my grandmothers heritage..native american. At my work place I have begun to educate them on the use of the word, Indian, Squaw,Buck, and others. They were shocked because they sd they learned these names in school. Well the "N" word was learned that way to , when some ref to our african american families....and written in books. May we all keep a open mind in this forum abt this learning process, and support the ones here who have done alot of research for everyone. God Bless.
