CHEROKEE TRIBAL HISTORY
March 3, 2007 - USA
Cherokee tribal history and revokation Saturday, 3rd March, 2007 : The Cherokee Nation of Native Americans have voted to revoke the tribal citizenship of descendants of the black slaves the Cherokees once owned. A total of 76.6% have voted to amend the tribal constitution to limit citizenship to blood tribe members only. Supporters have said that only the Cherokees had the right to determine their own tribal members. Opponents said the amendment is racist and aimed at preventing those with African-American heritage from gaining tribal revenue and government funding. The Cherokee Nation has some 250,000 to 270,000 members, and is second only to the Navajo in size. The vote has followed from a ruling by the Cherokee Nation Supreme Court last year which secured tribal citizenship for descendants of freedmen.

But here's the truth: Sometimes the more things change, the more they stay the same. And sometimes, oh, sometimes change is good. Sometimes change is everything...."
