What does it mean when Grann says the Osage had the first-ever "underground reservation"?

English

lawyer [7]3 years ago
8 0

The meaning of David Grann's statement that the Osage had the first-ever <em>"underground reservation"</em> is that the Osage tribe was able to secure the head-rights in the mineral resources in their territory through careful and visionary negotiations with the U.S. Government.

  • The Osage could sell off their allotted land but the head-rights to the underground mineral resources were not up for sale but can only be transferred through inheritance.

  • Based on Grann's <em>"Killers of the Flower Moon,"</em> which is <u>an Osage saying</u>, the Osage tribe appeared to be the only Native American tribe that negotiated favorably with the government to secure the future of their rights with regard to the mineral resources in their area.

Thus, David Grann could rightly say that the Osage had the first-ever <em>"underground reservation"</em> in his <em>"Killers of the Flower Moon" </em>because of the Osage's share in the tribe’s mineral trust that they secured for themselves.

Answer:

I have always been utterly terrified of the gym. Whenever I would walk into the gym, all of the fit people would like at me with a nefarious smile only seen in books of myth. Just entering a gym resulted in them all staring at like I was their supply of entertainment for the day, all chuckling amongst themselves in a system of hilarity. The gym always makes me just want to fly away. Ever since I set foot into a public gym for the first time, I always try to stay away from that type of building.
