  • S10, E2, Pt 8: Choctaw Labor Day Festival 2025 | Why We Gather
    Aug 20 2026
    What does the Choctaw Labor Day Festival mean to YOU? In the final episode of this series where I visited the 2025 Choctaw Labor Day Festival, I’m sharing stories from festival goers about what makes this annual gathering so special. One of my favorite conversations was with my cousin, Cheryl, a descendant of Chief Mushulatubbee and part of our Coley family lineage. Cheryl shares stories about our ancestors, the close-knit Choctaw community they built, and even how family members would move the furniture out of the house so everyone could dance! For Cheryl and me, the Labor Day Festival is a place to “come home”, reconnect with family, celebrate our culture, and remember where we came from. Stick around until the very end for the bloopers. Because apparently, telling history doesn’t always go according to plan. Yakoke to the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma for partnering with me on this series!

    Deep drumbeats. Sticks striking together. The roar of the crowd. The energy builds… This is Choctaw stickball and it’s more than a game. It’s tradition, pride, community, and a living connection to our ancestors. In this episode of Native ChocTalk, we’re heading to the 2025 Choctaw Nation Labor Day Festival to experience the stickball tournament, hear from players and announcers, and learn why this powerful tradition continues to bring our communities together.

    Welcome back to this special Native ChocTalk series, where I'm taking you along with me to the 2025 Choctaw Nation Labor Day Festival in Tvshkahomma to explore the history, traditions, and people that make this weekend so meaningful! In today's episode, you’ll learn about our Ohoyo Miko Yopisa – the Choctaw Princess Pageants. These pageants are about so much more than a crown. They’re a celebration of culture, leadership, language, history, and service. At the 2025 Choctaw Nation Labor Day Festival, 26 young women competed for the titles of Little Miss, Junior Miss, and Senior Miss Choctaw Nation. I had the honor of meeting several contestants and hearing what representing our Chahta people means to them.
