Some of you may have seen the TV ad which extols Oklahoma City and features Lisa Billy, a Republican State Rep and member of the Chickasaw nation, which is itself listed as the sponsor of the ad. The wonders of OKC are described as reflecting a "collision of cultures more than one hundred years ago."
Indeed. I wonder how the Chickaw would have described that "collision" in the 1830s?
