Guest Opinion. As Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation, I highly value the many partners ready to work with us in Oklahoma, both tribal citizens and non-tribal. Although a few have tried to destroy tribal sovereignty and reject collaboration with tribes, I have long suspected that position is unpopular among all four million Oklahomans.

Guest Opinion. Cherokee leaders throughout history have known that informed citizens are the backbone of our thriving democracy. Well-executed journalism strengthens tribal sovereignty and self-determination by ensuring that our government remains accountable and transparent. That is as true today as it was when the Cherokee Phoenix first began publishing nearly 200 years ago.

Guest Opinion. What does it mean to be an at large citizen of the Cherokee Nation? That’s something I went out to explore over a weekend in September. I drove through the countryside, explored the lakeshores, hiked the hills, fished the rivers, and met as many people as I could. One of my reasons for visiting was to meet Shawn Crittenden who is part of the task force forming up the Gadugi Corps - a new volunteer-oriented program designed to facilitate citizens doing good for and serving other citizens and our Nation.

Guest Opinion. A top priority throughout my administration has been holding the federal government to its promises to the Cherokee Nation. We have strongly defended our treaty rights to great effect, such as when federal courts recognized that the Cherokee Nation Reservation continues to exist, or when Congress finally held hearings on Cherokee Nation’s right to a delegate.

Opinion. After the first jet plane hit the World Trade Center’s north tower at 8:46 a.m. on Sept. 11, 2001, television commentators thought the horrible incident was an aeronautical accident. Then 18 minutes later, another plane struck the south tower on live television. Suddenly, the realization came that America was under attack by terrorists.

Guest Opinion. Cherokee Nation’s government has the essential task of serving more than 460,000 citizens across the world. Whether it’s providing life-saving health care, training Cherokees for good jobs, giving access to safe, affordable housing, providing cultural and language programs, and more, everything we accomplish depends on hard-working tribal employees.
