Guest Opinion. Cherokee history is full of rich moments and great triumphs. Throughout history, the Cherokee people have acted collectively to overcome tragedy, work through trauma, and build a great nation. Telling that story is important. But a great nation is strong enough to tell the whole story, including those times when we inflicted trauma on others.

Opinion. During the 2020 Democratic presidential primary season there were at one point more than two dozen candidates vying for the nomination. Candidates worked hard to differentiate themselves from others to become the front runner. Progressive candidates, such as Senators Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, promised to eliminate undergraduate student loan debt. As a candidate, then-former Vice President Joe Biden jumped on the bandwagon and promised to forgive student debt.

Guest Opinion. As Cherokees, valuing family is core to our identity as a people. That value extends to our role as an employer, both for the Cherokee Nation government and Cherokee Nation Businesses. As our workforce has grown and evolved, we needed a better family leave policy to support workers in meeting both their work and home life obligations.

Land that was wrongly taken from tribes more than 100 years ago is often only returned if the tribes agree to adhere to someone else’s interpretation of what’s best for the land. There’s a better way to right an old wrong.

Guest Opinion. For many Cherokees, their greatest source of connection to our tribe is through local Cherokee community organizations. Today, nearly 70 organizations belong to the Cherokee Nation’s Community and Cultural Outreach (CCO) network of grassroots community groups. These include over 40 groups within our 7,000-square-mile reservation and 25 at-large organizations throughout the country. The groups focus on a variety of areas, including cultural preservation, nutrition, community service, and more.

Guest Opinion. As Cherokees, we are in a race to save our language. Deputy Chief Bryan Warner and I know that whatever we can do to save the Cherokee language will be our greatest legacy. Today only about 2,000 first-language speakers remain alive, and most of these men and women are over the age of 70. We must learn from their wisdom and knowledge for as long as we can, and they deserve to live in comfort and dignity while they teach us.

Guest Opinion. On this day, established by the United Nations in 1994 to recognize the rights, struggles and achievements of Indigenous Peoples, the International Indian Treaty Council (IITC) salutes and congratulates Indigenous Peoples around the world for their continued courage, vision and dedication. We especially recognize the unwavering stands taken by Indigenous defenders of human, treaty, cultural and environmental rights, who continue to protect their lands and ways of life in the face of brutal repression and criminalization. You are our heroes!
