OPINIONS ᏃᎵᏍᎬᎢ
COMMENTARY: Travelers expect to be catered to, not dictated to.
We are a proud people with a strong culture. Our history is, well, ancient. It is our brand. It is who we are. The Cherokee as a race, as a people, are known, around the world.
COMMENTARY: Political Theatre
My kneejerk reaction to these 10 minutes of the workings of our government was that I wished that the Chairperson had a media panic button or kill switch to disable the cameras and audio. I was embarrassed for our Tribe.
SPEAKING OF FAITH: The enemy’s focus…beware and be a courageously bold warrior
The Truth is, it’s the enemy’s focus on us in the Church that can highlight any problems we have seen lately.
