- Description:
- The document discusses the controversy surrounding the invitation of Choctaw Chief Harry Belvin to a festival in Talihina, Oklahoma. There is division within the Talihina Indian Club about whether or not Belvin should be invited. Some members support him, while others are against him. Despite the political tensions, Chief Belvin has contributed positively to the community, including the expansion of low-income housing and job opportunities. Ultimately, it is suggested that political differences should not overshadow the appreciation for Belvin's efforts in the community.
