Rosewood movie Seminoles reference

[Skooby]

Right before they shot and hung Sam Carter he said "You can kill me but you all can't eat me."

Then the white guy who shot him said "You ain't no Seminole, boy".

I don't get why that would be the response. What did he mean by that?

racist barb at Native Americans, the Seminoles were/are a tribe





I'll assume you misheard it and the cac was implying they Seminoles were cannibals or maybe the cacs ate the Seminoles

Not sure, I do know that escaped Africans fought alongside the Seminoles.
