As did Junaluska. Can you imagine how betrayed those two men must have felt when Jackson engineered the removal? Junaluska actually saved Jackson's life during the campaign against the Creeks. He regretted having done that and said so later in life. I get nauseous when I see his face on a twenty dollar bill. I'm not Native American, I'm the descendant of German and Irish settlers. I was born fifteen minutes from the Cherokee Reservation in Western N.C. The Cherokee are a big part of my state's history and I tend to be a little defensive of them. Anyway, on a brighter note, I'm glad I found this channel. The language fascinates the living daylights out of me. Hope you're enjoying it too!
The family were military men his father and grandfather survived with George Washington. That is where he got his name from George Guess which should have been spelled Gist. His father was Nathaniel and grandfather was Christopher Gist.
I would like to have the Syllabary as a song, so I can see it and hear it at the same time. I’m a dyslexic and I think that the American national languages should be Cherokee, I wouldn’t of had such a big learning gap if we all spoke and read Cherokee. I am proud to say that Sequoia, is a relative, on my fathers side.
