Talohoah Momah (They are still singing)

The missionaries, first from France and then from England, believed their job was to convert Indians to their faith. Blindly, they disregarded the fact that the Indians had their own faith and a relationship with the Creator as close, or closer, than their own. And so the English missionaries, looking for common ground, turned to music and began teaching the European musical scales to the Choctaws using "shape note" style notations.
