[grsummer]

I loved this song when It came out. I was In high school then . Then you very much my friend for posting it. In Greece there are people who are interested to get to know more about native Indians and are appreciative or your pride and connection with nature and purity. Yes, We do expect that Cherokke people will return.

Ever heard of Karma? Forcing them to learn English is being Karmically returned by now forcing us to learn Spanish. I can't be upset about it because it is a form of justice in my mind. I may not be Cherokee even in my ancestry, but my appreciation of this song is still the same as if I were.  I have Crow, Blackfoot, and Creek in my lineage and the same was done to them by this country. "Maybe someday when they learn, Cherokee nation will return."

This song was a hit when I was in high school.

I loved it at that time, and am glad to listen to it again, but I think the photos of Sitting Bull and tepees should not be here; they are of the Sioux Indians, not of the Cherokees.

This was my first vid on here. I googled and yahooed cherokee people and stuff and this is what I got. But I didn't do to bad for a first time, yeah?

[joanjuneau]

Great visuals. Good music. Thank you for the posting. Wish I could get some prints.

[diverseindians]

Thank you very much. I'm glad you like it. :)

I live in Australia and I listened to this song when it came out by Paul Revere and I have always loved it. I posted this on a US site for the many friends there to revisit.

[hickmangirl1]

oh I love this .. mine people hid in the hills of ky..

[legolasisthebest]

I love the Cherokee culture. Oh, Another thing for me to do when I become a politician, give more control of the reservations to the Tribal Councils and donate money to help build up the economy there.

I am of the East Band Cherokee.  I call him Andrew Jackass. Please don't carry $20 bills. He is like Hitler to us. Demand they place a Native American or at least, a good person like, Abe Lincoln. I have always loved this song, but will admit, this is the most truthful video yet about my people. I will give a 5 star for this, thank you again. Cherokee People Will Return!

[diverseindians]

Thank you so much! I I didn't think I put the pics with the words right but apparentley I did and I'm glad you like it. You see my name? I'm like five different kinds of native american but so far I'm in touch with my Cherokee side. I plan on making some more vids though.

[cherokeeghost]

You are very welcome. You are very talented and I will tell others about this video. Everybody should give this video 5 stars because it deserves it!

long live the cherokee go to the devil andrew jackson

[sheilamaclean]

Nice video - long live the Cherokee - your story and suffering will never be forgotten - one of the biggest atrocities in history.

[diverseindians]

Thank you. They say the biggest mistake the US made was the Trail of Tears. Nearly wiped the Cherokees off the face of the planet.

[sheilamaclean]

and so many other smaller nations became extinct; I think the last of one such tribe died in New York a couple of years ago;

Respect to your nation and all who survived the greed of avarice of so called 'civilised' men.

[firefighterman02000]

I am a Proud Cherokee. Long Live the Cherokee Nation

[diverseindians]

Me too even though I'm like a lot of other of native americans.

[riseupgad]

[diverseindians]

Thannk you so much. About the man and the bird, I just googled Cherokee people or cherokee nation. YOu should try it. It took me awhile to look for the pics I wanted.
