AFRICAN BLOOD & SWEAT BUILT THE WEST. The West often claims it is more developed because its people work harder and are more ingenious. However, we know European colonisation stole wealth from our continent. - Winnie Mandela

Sarah Rector was born in 1902 near the all-black town of Taft, located in the eastern portion of Oklahoma, in what was then known as “Indian Territory.” Her parents, Rose McQueen and her husband, Joseph Rector were descendants of African people who had been slaves owned by the Muscogee Creek Nation Creek Indians before the Civil War, and which became part of the Muscogee Creek Nation after the Treaty of 1866. As such, they and their descendants were listed as freedmen on the Dawes Rolls, by which they were entitled to land allotments under the Treaty of 1866 made by the United States with the Five Civilized Tribes. Consequently, nearly 600 Black children, or Muscogee Freedmen minors as they were called, were granted land allotments, and Sarah Rector was allotted 159 acres.
