This man played such an important role in my childhood.. He would always come to our after school club to tell stories, I listen to his stories at events here and there, and he also did art and storytelling at a day camp I would always go to. Once, I got sick because us kids were out in the heat so I had to go to the nurse and rest. He came to see how I was feeling and delivered my dried Doctor Who painting from the previous day and complimented it because he likes Doctor Who too 🥺💕

So this story made me smile. I am a Licensed North Carolina Wildlife Rehabber and my favorite animal so far to rehab are Opossums. Hearing this story and the fact that I have Cherokee in me, it made me smile even more. Thanks for sharing!!

Osiyo i cant wait I'm excited I just subscribed not too long ago I have been looking for Cherokee channels

[@rachelhardy2957]

I don't think I'm Cherokee enough to be a part of Cherokee Nation - but you just gave me the love and acceptance that I wanted through the amazing story telling you do. I really feel like part of the tribe, even if I'm too European to be. Thank you. 💕 I love you so much for what you just did for me today!

Honey blood quantum is a horrible thing to let taint your heart, regardless if you have 1 drop or full blood you’re part of us. Just by watching these videos and learning about your people you’re already doing the work that many full bloods refuse to do because they value blood quantum over heritage. You’re doing wonderful & you’re valid ♥️
