Guest Opinion. Seven years ago, I stood atop a sagebrush bluff in eastern Oregon, waiting for the coming total eclipse of the sun. As we gathered, talked, and laughed, the air cooled and the yellow landscape faded into muted tones. Ten minutes before totality, in a half-light like some strange Instagram filter, a Brewer’s Sparrow started singing. Three minutes to go, Venus appeared almost directly overhead. The sky in the West sank into a deep, velvety midnight blue as if blackness was pouring down from the heavens. Distant smoke from a fire on the southern horizon lit up like a sunset—two minutes to go.

Guest Opinion. At Cherokee Nation, we have a long history of supporting farmers and ranchers. From distributing relief payments to farm and food workers during the worst of the pandemic to filling market gaps for ranchers through the 1839 Cherokee Meat Co., we know how important it is to prioritize the people who grow, raise and process the food on our tables.

Guest Opinion - Native Vote 2024. The US. Civil Rights Commission Broken Promises Report documents the stark disparities American Indian and Alaska Natives (AIAN) suffer with the worst of the worst outcomes.
