Oklahoma Love-About II
Today's comments come from The Red River Historian, who lives in Texas, but loves Oklahoma:
Oklahoma is a crossroads of all sorts of cultures and the resulting culture clashes. European, African, and Native Americans all share strong histories throughout the state. Some of American history's biggest tragedies have played themselves out on Oklahoma soil, too, such as the Trail of Tears, Dust Bowl, and the
Oklahoma City bombing. However, most of what makes America America has roots in Oklahoma as well, like the cattle trails, the buffalo hunts, Route 66, Will Rogers, and the Joads. . . And the landscape, with rusty red earth jutting out from beneath rocky hills and sweeping prairies, paints an amazing picture.
