Why not a movie about Sequoyah, George Gist or Guess.

The Cherkoee called him crazy, even with threat of his death, he taught his daughter the now, Cherokee alphabet. They burned his alphabet, but his daughter learned it. Honestly George was a drunk, but his alphabet, in Cherokee serves our nation today. GHA!

He's not only talented, gracious and personable, he's one of the sexiest men in the world. Fabulous actor.

God or the native spirits bless Wes Studi he is a true representative of the native american spirit. He's not representing a stereo type but a noble and honorable culture nothing but the utmost respect for him and his portrayal of the native american peoples.
