Indian Symbols (Oklahoma, USA)
The name of the State of Oklahoma derives from Choctaw words “Okla” (people) and “humma” (red). Will the state need to rename itself when it is no longer politically acceptable to refer to people by the colour of their skin? As in, Washington Redskins? Unused card. Grade: 1
