Join the Chickamauga Warriors in Battle for NATIVE RIGHTS!
Feb 20, 2008

Focus:Indigenous Rights
Action Request:Petition
Location:United States
We need your help! Please help us reach our huge goal of 5,000 signatures! Our history is well known as the descendants of Dragging Canoe's warriors. Dragging Canoe (c. 1738- March 1, 1792) was an American Indian war leader who led a band of young Cherokees against the United States in the American Revolutionary War. The Chickamauga fought alongside the British in the American Revolution along with Indians from a number of other tribes. We suffered and left hearts on the ground during the founding of America. We have a proud history connected to this country yet we are not federally recognized. By signing our petition you will encourage Congressman Mica to support our bid for federal recognition and you will also be offering support in our effort to fulfill our destiny as the keepers of the history for all the Chickamauga Cherokee http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/federal-recognition-for-chickamauga-cherokee-indian-creek-band
