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.

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.
