Opinion. After George Floyd’s death in 2020, a shift occurred in mainstream attitudes about race and some of the dark eras in our country’s history. During the aftermath, statues of wayward explorer Christopher Columbus were toppled and Indigenous communities moved to rename the federal holiday that honored him.

Guest Opinion. At Cherokee Nation, we have built the largest health care system in Indian Country, providing excellent care to our citizens. However, the foundations of good health don’t start in hospitals and clinics. Many of the most powerful health and wellness tools are found in what we do before we need medical care.

Opinion. When the Indian Religious Freedom Act became U.S. law in 1978, we no longer had to hide our drums and dancing in the guise of tourist attractions, and our ceremonies were again openly practiced as necessary to the health of our communities.

Opinion. When I was a child, my Grandma Whitepigeon referred to Memorial Day as Decoration Day. My mother took my siblings and me to watch parades with national guard soldiers marching, accompanied by high school marching bands, down the streets in downtown Grand Rapids.

Guest Opinion. Severe weather – including tornadoes, flooding and violent thunderstorms – is an inevitable reality on the Cherokee Nation Reservation. Storms can wreak havoc on Cherokee communities, even endangering lives. The risk is greatest for those families that struggle to afford a safe place to ride out storms. All Cherokees should have peace of mind that they can be safe from severe weather.

Guest Opinion. The men and women working in police, fire and emergency services are who we call on to courageously respond first when there’s a crisis. They are our friends, family and neighbors who put their safety at risk to protect our entire community. We owe them our support, not only with words, but with tangible investments in the tools needed to do their jobs.

Guest Opinion. Navigating a complex health system can be difficult, especially for those living far away from their provider. Cherokee Nation is working hard to make it easier. Within the Cherokee Nation reservation, we have invested to make sure no Cherokee is more than a half-hour drive away from a clinic. Now, for Cherokee Nation citizens — particularly the many Cherokees living outside our 7,000-square-mile reservation in northeast Oklahoma — the new Patient Experience Team can ease the stress of getting care.

Opinion. The wild buffalo of Yellowstone Country are being considered for Endangered Species Act protection. Their population is not doing well. But, it seems the native hunters who come to kill them don’t care — it’s all about us tribes and our treaties, not the buffalo.
