Article discussing the Freedmen Cherokee

I have linked to George Dvorsky's Sentient Developments blog, previously and wished to share a favourite SD podcast, the first of his thatI had listened to, including: a film review of The Fountain (D. Aronofsky) and a discussion of the future of chess. I had first heard of George Dvorsky when he appeared on CBC TV's news show, The Hour. He challenged me to think about ethics, humanity and the possible future in a different light.

My Black-Cherokee children are still citizens.

I've read where many articles in mainstream media reports that Cherokees of African-American descent have been voted out of the nation. This information is FALSE. My three adult children are Black-Cherokee citizens and have not been disenrolled.

Tribal nations are sovereign and make self governing decisions daily.

Not about benefits? What is 50 BILLION $$$$............plus, land, casino rights and allowing anyone to become a citizen of a sovereign indigenous nations?

Think people.

Thanks for visiting my site, Twila. I didn't think that all "The Freedmen" had been summarily dismissed, but that those peoples with the Cherokee Nations blood ties had been reaffirmed, where proveable. I will visit your site and invite my readers to do so. Come on back, anytime.
