Tribal members and citizens of the Cherokee Nation, Chickasaw Nation, Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma, Muscogee Nation and very soon Seminole Nation can utilize their tribal membership to enjoy hunting and fishing in participating tribes’ treaty territories. The Inter-Tribal Council of the Five Civilized Tribes announced the Five Tribe Wildlife Management Reciprocity Agreement at its July quarterly meeting at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tulsa July 12, allowing hunting and fishing licenses issued through each tribe to be recognized by the other tribes that are party to the agreement, on respective reservation land.

On this day in Cherokee history, July 12 marks the anniversary of the signing of the Act of Union, an Act that unified two branches of the Cherokee people into a single Cherokee Nation government 185 years ago. Whether Western or “Old Settlers” or eastern Cherokee, those who joined together in 1839 were not just saving a government — they were ensuring our people, culture, language and traditions survived for generations to come. Because of them — because of the Act of Union — all of that has survived. We were unified once and for all, and every treaty Cherokee Nation had prior to that date remained in full force and effect. That is why, today, Cherokee Nation remains the same tribe with a continual and unbroken relationship with the United States. 🔗 Read the full Act of Union here: https://loom.ly/F7qzry8

ᎣᏏᏲ from the Cherokee Nation Employee Appreciation Day on Friday! 👋🏽❤️ The Cherokee Nation strives to be a great place to work, because we want the best and brightest to serve our community. In recent years, Cherokee Nation has made substantial investments in improving our work environment. Today, the Cherokee Nation government employs more 5,300 workers and Cherokee Nation Businesses more than 9,100. They bring their passion and skills every day and are deeply committed to the success of our tribal nation. Our government staff is about 85% Cherokee citizens, with women making up 7 of every 10 employees. That’s representative of Cherokee Nation’s commitment to employing our own people, as well as valuing inclusion and equality. 🔗 Check out Principal Chief Chuck Hoskin Jr.'s recent Chief Chat about building a thriving Cherokee Nation workforce: https://lnkd.in/gsxwAZcY

We photographed the 2024 Remember The Removal Bike Ride cyclists in Tahlequah in May before they left for their nearly 950-mile journey that started in New Echota, Georgia, and then again at the Pea Ridge National Military Park, two days before they rolled back into Tahlequah to officially end this year's ride. #RTR2024
