 Texas was chosen since the state had gone further than any other state, running all but a few tribes out, or otherwise eliminating them.The museum has a number of unique exhibits, such as an invoice for smallpox infected blankets that were given to the Delaware tribe, to an account that alleges Texas soldiers intentionally infecting Indians and then releasing them to go back to their tribes.In 2011, the president of the museum commented on the protest of some African-American groups over a proposed Confederate flag specialty license plate in Texas while supporting a Buffalo soldiers plate.
