Yes, but they are legal designations of communities that can set their own councils. In Theory, they are Native American Nations that have agreed in part to the 14th amendment to be part of the United States, and the land that has been reserved for them stands.
They claimed that the Fourteenth Amendment did not apply to the South because the territory was no longer part of the United States.
Civil Rights became a part of the U.S. Constitution in 1868 when the 14th amendment was adopted. The 14th amendment grantees each citizen "equal protection of the laws".

This part of the 14th amendment.
Section 1 of the 14th Amendment contains the "Citizenship Clause". It's one of three Amendments passed soon after the Civil War.

Fourteenth Amendment
The First Amendment to the Constitution which is a part of the Bill of Rights and which prohibits the making of any law respecting an establishment of religion, impeding the free exercise of religion, infringing on the freedom of speech, freedom of the press, etc. With the Due Process Clause of the 14th Amendment the First Amendment applies to the States and local governments. See Gitlow v. New York, 268 US 652 (1925). Of course, you still need to be careful of what you write in that it does not violate any other laws, i.e., libel laws, defamation, etc.
