Near a creek just west of Sumter County in Mississippi\, leaders of the Choctaw nation and representatives of the United States signed a “treaty of perpetual friendship\, cession and limits” 180 years ago.
Called the Treaty of Dancing Rabbit Creek\, it was the first treaty with American Indians that not only handed over land to the states — nearly 11 million acres — but also forced the removal of tribes to U.S. territory in present-day Oklahoma\, the first step to the infamous Trail of Tears.
