Being at the end of the Trail of Tears, everyone in my state should know they live on indigenous land, but being as red and fucking stupid a state as it is, I doubt they know, or acknowledge, which tribal lands they actually inhabit.

I live on Muscogee lands. Have known that for years, and have only lived here about 1/3 of my life.
