Last night the Centrist CCW and I met Michell Hicks, the Chief of the Eastern Band of the Cherokee. It was an interesting evening, Chief Hicks is very patriotic, and a sharp businessman, in contrast to the typical college students filling the room. Someone asked about native religion, Chief Hick paused and said:
"Many of the Eastern Band of the Cherokee are Southern Baptist".
Needless to say, this did not get a lot of oohs and ahhs in a university setting, nor any follow up questions.
Another great quote was:
"Native Americans proudly serve in the US Armed Forces in a much higher percentage than the general population".
No one wanted to know why.
It was great to see a real person confront the stereotypes about their people group in front of granola crunchers who come hard wired with a politically correct, and factually incorrect view of Native Americans.
Power to the Flag Waving, Military Serving, God Fearing, Southern Baptist people!
