At Cherokee 411, we honor the rich cultures and living traditions of all three federally recognized Cherokee tribes: the Cherokee Nation, the United Keetoowah Band of Cherokee Indians (UKB), and the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians (EBCI). This blog is a space to celebrate our shared heritage, explore unique customs, and uplift the voices of our communities. From language and ceremony to food, fashion, and everyday life, we aim to keep our stories alive and relevant for generations to come.
Native Americans have served honorably in every major conflict since the Revolutionary War. The Navajo Code Talkers’ unbreakable code was crucial in WWII, while Ira Hayes symbolized courage at Iwo Jima.
