The five civilized tribes of the whites (The Cherokees, Creeks, Choctaws, Chickasaws, and Seminoles)occupied sizable tracts of land in Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Florida. The Portions of these tribes had accepted the teachings of the white missionaries and had accepted Christianity, white inventions, and even the concept of slavery.
This is often a Hollywood myth. Some tribes, like the Comanche, were actually very short and wiry. Now, it all depends on parentage but in the 18th and 19th centuries, most were short.
The 21st century movie that is not predominantly in black and white is the PIANIST.

Depends on who you are what it means. To Native Americans plains tribes a white buffalo was a sacred animal. As it was tribes like the Dakota Sioux used the buffalo for food, clothing, worship, and anything else they could glean from the buffalo.
Initially the many small Muskogean tribes that came to be collectively called "Creeks" by white Americans waged war on most of their neighbours: Alibamu, Coushatta, Hitchiti, Tuskegee and Natchez. These neighbouring tribes were gradually defeated and absorbed by the Creeks. Later they fought intermittent wars against the Catawbas, Choctaws and Cherokee, as well as being involved in fighting against white Americans.
These Native Americans were said to have lost their cultural identity. They were called apples by the members of their tribes.
All five of the "civilized tribes" that were illegally expelled from their property made every effort to live peacefully with their white neighbors. Unfortunately for justice, the whites had more guns, and the victims would have been massacred if they had resisted.
