    In the speech Rebuilding the Cherokee Nation given by Wilma Mankillers I think she has a lot of valuable points about how she would like to see the Cherokee nation rebuilt, how she wants people to look past stereotypes and see her as the Chief of the Cherokee Nation, and how she describes being able to accomplish all of this. From what I have read about Wilma Mankiller and her background is that she was the first woman to ever lead a major Native America Tribe in the United States of American. Wilma was a former Chief of the Cherokee Nation for 10 years from 1985-1995 which is the second biggest tribe in America. The name Mankiller comes from an old Cherokee military rank that she got from her ancestors who was given that name for looking over the village. She lived on the land with her husband Charlie Soap and his son Winterhawk which changed her candidacy and won the respect of the Cherokee Nation because of the impact she had on her tribe for focusing on self-sufficiency and the tribe’s needs with no outside…

    During the 19th century, American expansion westward always conflicted with the Native tribes which originally resided in these territories. Many of these Native groups were met with force by white settlers and/or armed forces and pushed further west or divided into smaller groups and displaced into reservations. Some of these Native people, such as the Cherokee nation were able to continue living in their homeland by signing political treaties with the federal government of the United States. Seeing the continued aggressive growth of American territory onto Native lands, the reunified Cherokee nation drafted a constitution in the year 1827 and adapted their political system to mirror the one followed by the United States in hopes to legitimize their sovereignty.…

    Cherokee Removal For this assignment, our group got the opportunity to choose the topic of the Native Americans. The first thing that came to mind was to do my topic on the Cherokee Removal. The Cherokee Removal, part of the trail of tears, occurred in 1838. The U.S. military and various state militias forced some 15,000 Cherokees from their homes in Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina, and Tennessee and moved them west to Indian Territory. The removal of the Cherokee Nation fulfilled federal and state policies that developed in response to the rapid expansion of white settlers and cotton farming…

    Cherokee people lived all over the land before the United States even existed. “The Cherokees lived on land extending from North Carolina to South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, and Alabama for hundreds of years” (Green & Perdue, 1). They were constantly moving around involuntarily. The Cherokee tribes were often forced to leave their land when Americans found use of the land that the Cherokees were living on. White Americans were wanting their land because they found gold, wanted their livestock and they were able to evict the Cherokees out of their homes” (Green & Perdue, 92)…

    Social structure was a vital component to any Native American tribe. The Algonquians, for example, a group that inhabited the Northeastern portion of the continent, “lived in bands ranging from one to three hundred members”. Families lived together in wigwams “made of bent saplings covered with birch bark”. Not only did a husband, wife, and their family reside in these structures, but their married sons and their families lived there also. “Both the Iroquois and the Algonquians had strong tribal identities above and beyond the basic nuclear families.”…

    The Cherokee Tribe of today is made of 3 different groups that all descend from the same common tribe which was formed in the late 1800s. The Cherokee community has more than 300,000 tribal members, making it the largest of the 567 federally recognized tribes in the United States. Upwards of 800,000 people claim having Cherokee ancestry on US land. With Oklahoma being the largest census of acclaimed Cherokee tribe members, members reside within 14 counties of that state. The Tribes economic impact within Oklahoma and neighboring northeastern states, is at an estimated $1.5 billion.…

    Essay On Cherokee Removal

    • 3 Pages

    In the 1820s and 1830s, the Cherokees had to figure out whether they would stay or leave from their land in Georgia because the United States wanted Cherokee land. Historians today still debate about whether the Cherokees should have stayed or left. Cherokee representatives believed that the United States will let them stay, while Boudinot believed that they should leave otherwise the United States would force them out in a violent way. One reason why removal offered the best chance for Cherokee survival is that if they stayed, they would lose their Cherokee civilization.…

    The Navajo lived in the dry, northern regions of Arizona and New Mexico, and were also farmers and hunters. Like the Cherokee the Navajo did not live in teepees, but lived in dwellings called hogans. A major difference between the Cherokee and most of the other tribes is the fact they viewed men and women as equal and when married the man moves in with his wife and the lineage follows the maternal side. The Navajo, through stories seem to view the man as the leader, and when married the woman leaves to live with her husband.…

    To take something and claim it as yours, when you never owned it in the first place...the United States government and public supporters sought to justify the removal of Cherokee Indians in the 1820 and 1830s, and tried to move them west of the Mississippi river. Big supporters like Lewis Cass and the state of Georgia played a big role in justifying the removal. Lewis Cass wrote essays to support, and Georgia told the Cherokees to either abide by Georgia law, or get out. United States and public sector sought to justify the removal of Cherokees by making them abide by state and United States laws, then forcing them out for noncooperation and paying them a sum of money. Georgia was angry about sharing the land with the Cherokees.…

    Memorial of the Cherokee Nation is about the plight of the Cherokee Indians in the 1830s. Beginning after the War of 1812 when the white men were moving south in to states such as Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi, five civilized Indian nations occupied these states and the Cherokees in particular were located in Georgia. This land was prime for growing cotton and the white farmers wanted the Indians off of the land so they could prosper from cotton growing. There were federal treaties in place granting the Cherokee and the other Indian nations in the area the right to live on the lands they occupied. There were two cases that went before the Supreme Court, Cherokee Nation v. Georgia (1830) and Worcester v. Georgia (1832), where the Supreme Court upheld the rights of the Cherokees.…

    I’ve learned that although in the past, they were a bit of a more merciless society, today, they’re a very respectful tribe and have steered away from conflict. I also respect greatly how independent they truly are. During the great depression, they received little to no economic assistance from the government and so instead of the Cherokee’s looking to their government for help in this time of need, they turned to each other. Everyone in the tribe helped out in ways they can and were helped in ways that they couldn’t help themselves. In the future, I see the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma sticking together and remaining a sovereign nation within the United States.…
