Sorting through some of my chaos means you get to see this xerox copy of my 4th Great Grandmother Caroline Corn. As a baby she was denied being on the rolls even after her grandmother petitioned the state. That had such a negative, lasting effect on our family. #cherokee

Any folks here able to help me with a wording/phrasing question? I’m writing a Route 66 themed puzzle book and need a short, concise clue for “Cherokee”. The clue I drafted is “Nation of indigenous people
in Northeastern Oklahoma” but I’m not sure if that’s the most accurate/preferred phrasing. Anyone from the #CherokeeNation able to suggest some phrasing for me?

I’m also open to suggested resources for learning how Route 66 affected the Cherokee Nation.

We put together IFAKs for protests. Our group specializes in de-escalation training, environment awareness training, & life-saving street medicine awareness. One of our certified EMTs shares information about how to respond to med emergencies & get people to safety.

#streetmedicine #safety #protest

IFAKs are excellent for carrying on-the-go. You never know when there could be a medical emergency even outside of a protest environment. You never know when you could save someone's life.

[My across the hall neighbor and 'adopted' grandkid Kolya is having top surgery in a week if you'd like to help them. They are taking 5 weeks off work.]

I'm going to be okay, but if you'd like to support me financially during this time, it would mean a lot and genuinely help lighten the load. You can send anything (only if you’re able!) via:

"Half-Breed" is a popular song recorded by Cher in 1973. Cher's version, recorded with instrumental backing by L.A. sessions musicians from the #WreckingCrew, was recorded on May 21, 1973 at #LarrabeeSound in Los Angeles. Lyrically, the song describes the life of a girl who faces societal rejection due to having a #White father and #Cherokee mother. It contains themes of #racism and #doubleStandards. The song reached Number 1 on the #Billboard #Hot100.
