The Oklahoma Land Run is viewed in two different lights. One side is portrayed by white settlers that are filled with hope and dreams. The other side is people who believe this shouldn’t event shouldn’t be celebrated. This event in history was only explored by white settlers, who were American citizens. Native Americans, who lived on this land, were not able to participate in the land runs. A select criteria was enforced for the land run. The land, that was up for grabs, was once a part of Indian Territory, and people lived their lives on the land. It’s in the middle of the reservation, of course, tribes called this land “home”. The Native Americans were told by the government to move or they would be killed (Stewart - Video).
