This session is presented by Bobbie Chew Bigby (Cherokee Nation), PhD post-doctoral research fellow, University of Waterloo, Ontario, and Randy Palmer (Kiowa/Choctaw), Kiowa Black Leggings Warrior Society. Located in Anadarko, Oklahoma, Indian City USA was one of the earliest, longest-running, and most cherished American Indian cultural attractions in the country. Indian City USA brought together multiple Native tribes to share their cultures, histories, and arts with countless visitors over decades, from the mid-1950s through the end of the 2000s. In their forthcoming book documenting Indian City USA, our speakers draw on vibrant postcard images, family photographs, and maps, together with the oral histories of those who worked and lived there. This session aims to provide a unique view into Indian City USA, and what made it so special for so many people.
This session is part of “Perspectives in History”: The Oklahoma History Symposium, presented on May 4, 2024, at the Oklahoma History Center.
