Guest Opinion. Cherokee Nation is large and growing, with more than 460,000 citizens making us the largest tribe in America. The hundreds of thousands of Cherokees of all ages deserve world-class facilities serving our health, education, safety, and community life and culture. That’s why we have undertaken the largest single capital investment in our history, with almost $1.2 billion allocated to more than 60 construction projects.

Guest Opinion. Our awareness of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW) may be relatively new within the last decade, but it started long ago with Pocahontas, or Matoaka. Contrary to the Disney movie built on historical legends of early America, Pocahontas was forced to marry a colonist from the Jamestown Colony in order to try to make peace between her people, the Powhatan Confederation and the colonists. She was forced to live away from her family and not allowed to see them in a kidnapping situation, taken to Great Britain to showcase the founding of the enterprising Colony. Once she gave birth, she was murdered and died within hours of boarding a ship to return to Virginia. That is the real story and the one that has been passed down within the present day Pamunkey Nation of Virginia.²

Guest Opinion. Autism is a term covering many different ways of being human. In the modern world, we are just beginning to understand this complex syndrome and how to best support our friends and family members on the autism spectrum. Still, no matter what challenges and potentials our fellow community members bring, everyone deserves to feel valued, understood and accepted. As we take this journey together, let's remember to listen, learn and celebrate the beauty of our differences.

Opinion. Native News Online’s most read article this past week was not about the Missing and Murdered Indigenous People (MMIP) epidemic that has gripped Indian Country. Instead it was about South Dakota’s Governor Kristi Noem, who killed a dog because she deemed the pup untrainable to become a hunting dog.

Guest Opinion. Nearly 4,000 miles separate Alaska’s North Slope, the ancestral homelands of the North Slope Iñupiat, and Washington D.C. But after multiple trips between the two to advocate for our self-determination in our ancestral homelands before the vast bureaucracy of the federal government, it feels like we live on different planets.

Guest Opinion. This April, I’m taking a moment to reflect on the progress we’ve made to improve access to health care for communities of color. April is Minority Health Month, a time to acknowledge and raise awareness about health disparities among historically disadvantaged minority populations in our country – and what President Joe Biden is doing to close the gap.
