Chief Phillip Martin: A Ground-breaking Leader for the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians

Chief Phillip Martin was the elected leader of the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians from 1979 to 2007. His military service led him to decide that if Europe could be rebuilt after WWII, then Mississippi's Choctaws could have better schools and lives, too. Members of the tribe still feel the effects of his work today--fifteen years after his death. Written by Iysiahs York and produced by Emma Potts.
