We must remember our Aniyunwiya (Cherokee) ancestors, to pass on their culture, so they can't be forgotten. To help and serve one another for everyone's benefit. The less debating, fighting, and grudges we hold the sooner our lives, our communities, and our world will be a better place to live. Our history is different than those whose ancestors were removed. Remember the Treaty of New Echota and the selling of our Tribal lands. We seek unity now for all Tribes, Nations and Bands of Aniyunwiya (Cherokee), we united together are the Ani-Yun'wi'ya, the "Principal People", apart we are but lost. Remember we are the "Keepers of the Sacred Fire". Remembering this is a moral obligation to our posterity.
