  • The Cherokee Removal and the Fourteenth Amendment
    MAGLIOCCA.DOC 07/07/04 1:37 PM Duke Law Journal VOLUME 53 DECEMBER 2003 NUMBER 3 THE CHEROKEE REMOVAL AND THE FOURTEENTH AMENDMENT GERARD N. MAGLIOCCA† ABSTRACT This Article recasts the original understanding of the Fourteenth Amendment by showing how its drafters were influenced by the events that culminated in The Trail of Tears. A fresh review of the primary sources reveals that the removal of the Cherokee Tribe by President Andrew Jackson was a seminal moment that sparked the growth of the abolitionist movement and then shaped its thought for the next three decades on issues ranging from religious freedom to the antidiscrimination principle. When these same leaders wrote the Fourteenth Amendment, they expressly invoked the Cherokee Removal and the Supreme Court’s opinion in Worcester v. Georgia as relevant guideposts for interpreting the new constitutional text. The Article concludes by probing how that forgotten bond could provide the springboard for a reconsideration of free exercise and equal protection doctrine once courts begin exploring the meaning of this Cherokee Paradigm of the Fourteenth Amendment.

  • These Hills, This Trail: Cherokee Outdoor Historical Drama and The
    THESE HILLS, THIS TRAIL: CHEROKEE OUTDOOR HISTORICAL DRAMA AND THE POWER OF CHANGE/CHANGE OF POWER by CHARLES ADRON FARRIS III (Under the Direction of Marla Carlson and Jace Weaver) ABSTRACT This dissertation compares the historical development of the Cherokee Historical Association’s (CHA) Unto These Hills (1950) in Cherokee, North Carolina, and the Cherokee Heritage Center’s (CHC) The Trail of Tears (1968) in Tahlequah, Oklahoma. Unto These Hills and The Trail of Tears were originally commissioned to commemorate the survivability of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians (EBCI) and the Cherokee Nation (CN) in light of nineteenth- century Euramerican acts of deracination and transculturation. Kermit Hunter, a white southern American playwright, wrote both dramas to attract tourists to the locations of two of America’s greatest events. Hunter’s scripts are littered, however, with misleading historical narratives that tend to indulge Euramerican jingoistic sympathies rather than commemorate the Cherokees’ survivability. It wasn’t until 2006/1995 that the CHA in North Carolina and the CHC in Oklahoma proactively shelved Hunter’s dramas, replacing them with historically “accurate” and culturally sensitive versions. Since the initial shelving of Hunter’s scripts, Unto These Hills and The Trail of Tears have undergone substantial changes, almost on a yearly basis. Artists have worked to correct the romanticized notions of Cherokee-Euramerican history in the dramas, replacing problematic information with more accurate and culturally specific material. Such modification has been and continues to be a tricky endeavor: the process of improvement has triggered mixed reviews from touristic audiences and from within Cherokee communities themselves.

The purpose of this article is to demonstrate the procedural process involved in pressing tribal claims before the Indian Claims Commission and in federal court. The development of the Outlet cases, the Texas Cherokee claims, and the Freedman cases will be outlined. The Arkansas riverbed litigation, still pending, will also be explored. The historical data used in this study is primarily based on the files of Earl Boyd Pierce, who became the first full-time Cherokee tribal attorney in 1938. Pierce, Chief W.W. Keeler, and other great Cherokee warriors were responsible for organizing the Cherokee Nation's government as it exists today.

  • The Coup Between Rabbit and Tseg'sgin'
    The Coup between Rabbit and Tseg’sgin’: An Analysis of the Cherokee Perspective and the Role of Folklore during the Indian Removal Act and the Trail of Tears by Karen L. Milmine The Native American experience in the United States is a history marked by strife, marginalization, and displacement in which the voices of the multitude are often overlooked in favor of the sanitized version of events surrounding United States-Native American relations. Native American history is punctuated by the intertwining of historical fact, spiritual belief, and folklore, creating a unique landscape in which the Native American perspective is influenced by both the reality of their situation as well as their attempts to reconcile these events with their culture’s belief system. One of the most crucial areas of study in the disparity between standard American historiographical belief and the Native American perspective is the Indian Removal period and the Trail of Tears.1 This paper will offer an analysis of Cherokee folklore juxtaposed with the United States’ governmental position on the issue of Indian removal revealing Andrew Jackson’s motives and highlighting the importance of the evolution of the Trickster motif to Tseg’sgin’ (Jeg’skin) which points to an overlooked historiographical element of oral history and folklore that enriches the account of the Indian Removal period and the Trail of Tears, particularly in terms in the erosion of traditional Cherokee history and culture. Cherokee folklore, much in the same way as other Native American tribes, uses Anglo society as a foil for their own community.2 One Cherokee 1 Theda Purdue and Michael D.

INTRODUCTION A hallmark of modern western society is its belief in human rights and in equality of all people regardless of race, religion, and gender. Even while the battle rages for the civil rights of gay and lesbian couples, Western states exert pressure on other nations to liberalize their policies.3 While beliefs on the equality of women are now commonplace in the United States, many feminists would point out that women have only had the right to vote since 1920.4 Many might assume that because the United States was a pioneer of women’s suffrage, it was at the forefront of women’s civil liberties before 1920.5 One might assume this particularly when comparing the rights of women in the United States to non-western cultures.6 A careful examination of the facts, however, shows that in some cases this schema does not hold true.7 1 Minutes of February 9, 1757, S.C.
