Whatdoes Oklahoma mean?

Oklahomais based on Choctaw Indian words which translate as red people(okla meaning “people” and humma meaning”red”). Recorded history for the name “Oklahoma”began with Spanish explorer Coronado in 1541 on his quest for the”Lost City of Gold.” Oklahoma became the 46th state onNovember 16, 1907.

When do the POPPOprotests begin?
