This has nothing to do with ancestry, the man ate a fucking Indian. There is no chin behind Chuck Norris' beard. There is only another fist. In fine print on the last page of the Guinness Book of World Records it notes that all world records are held by Chuck Norris, and those listed in the book are simply the closest anyone else has ever gotten.

POPSIndian to Indian Racism "In the spirit of keeping it real, I can’t understand for the life of me why anyone who is of Native American/First Nations descent would use a document like the Dawes Rolls? which was drafted using the United States definitions of race to determine ancestry.? I? hope that they would understand how the US governments treaties and documents have never been used in a way that uplifts Native peoples, which is why relying on those documents should be obviously wrong. People who have been so decimated by racism should really know better than to engage in this racist behavior."

POPSPick a peck of pimientos de Padron More: On menus: Chefs usually pan-fry these peppers, sprinkle with salt and then serve up as bar snacks, which is exactly how you can get them at Cesar in Berkeley. Alembic and Zinnia in San Francisco prepare the less spicy shishito the very same way. Other restaurants serve the sometimes spicy Padrons with heirloom tomatoes - Zuni Cafe pairs them with Cherokee Purples and Incanto puts them alongside Sungolds.

POPSCarvings From Cherokee Script’s Dawn more (at source): It may be, as is often noted, that his achievement is the only known instance of an individual’s single-handedly creating an entirely new system of writing. An archaeologist and explorer of caves has now found what he thinks are the earliest known examples of the Sequoyah syllabary. The characters are cut into the wall of a cave in southeastern Kentucky, a place sacred to the Cherokee as the traditional burial site of a revered chief. The archaeologist, Kenneth B. Tankersley of the University of Cincinnati, said in an interview recently that this was “one of the most fascinating and important finds in my career,” yielding likely insights into “the genius of Sequoyah.”

POPSBand of Brothers 101st Airborne Motto "Currahee!" via Antara ~ ~ ~ "Hang tough, big guy," he said. "Your troopers need you back out there." But Petraeus' four stars carried no weight. "There was absolutely no response whatsoever," Petraeus said. "Did you think there was any hope?" Martin asked. "Not really," Petraeus said. "I see his beautiful blue eyes but he's staring straight right through me, and he doesn't know who I am and he doesn’t know I'm there," Joanne said. Petraeus turned to leave, then decided to give it one last try. "I just decided to shout out 'Currihee.'" That's right, "Currihee." It's a Cherokee Indian word that the was the motto for the famous "Brand of Brothers" regiment in the 101st. "We counted 'One, two, three, Currihee,'" Petraeus said. "That's when he kind of sat up in the bed as best as he could," said Brennan's dad Jim. "Like saying, 'I'm in here, I'm in here,'" Joanne said.

POPS"Moon-eyed people" continues: As the legend goes, the group arrived at Mobile Bay around 1170, made their way up the Alabama and Coosa rivers and built stone fortifications at several spots near present-day Chattanooga, Tenn. Dana Olson, an author who has spent decades trying to prove the legend, said circumstantial evidence on both sides of the Atlantic is too compelling to ignore. "I've traveled all over the country finding these forts. Some of them are pretty well known, but I'm still uncovering some of them," said Olson, the author of "The Legend of Prince Madoc and the White Indians."

POPSAnthropology Museum database to go online
article continues: Nearly 50 artifacts connected to the Cherokee culture including baskets, ceremonial pipes, jewelry, ceramics and a range of other objects can be found in the database. Thousands of American Indian projectile points, most of them found in North Carolina, have also been cataloged. The oldest artifact in the collection dates to 10,000 B.C. Archaeology and anthropology enthusiasts can search by country to find objects from a particular geographic area or by culture, such as the Hopi, to find all objects in the collection associated with that culture. People can also search for a type of artifact. For example, by entering “basket” as a search term, someone could find records for more than 150 baskets in the collection. Anyone can use the database, but the database will be particularly valuable for North Carolina teachers, said Stephen Whittington, director of the museum. Teachers can use images and the descriptions from the database to plan lessons

POPSEducation Even though this talks about the Cherokee people, this in fact speaks for all Aboriginal peoples, every where. In Canada the First Nation, Metis & Inuit peoples are not taught the same as in the outside world (white mans world) they are behind and kept that way by the governments who regulate education, they were & are never taught history because the Canadian Governments were and are scared to tell the truth about the Canadian history. This can possibly be said by all the governments around the world who suppress the Indigenous peoples of that country. Cougar
