    ᎣᏏᏲ from the Cherokee Nation Employee Appreciation Day on Friday! 👋🏽❤️ The Cherokee Nation strives to be a great place to work, because we want the best and brightest to serve our community. In recent years, Cherokee Nation has made substantial investments in improving our work environment. Today, the Cherokee Nation government employs more 5,300 workers and Cherokee Nation Businesses more than 9,100. They bring their passion and skills every day and are deeply committed to the success of our tribal nation. Our government staff is about 85% Cherokee citizens, with women making up 7 of every 10 employees. That’s representative of Cherokee Nation’s commitment to employing our own people, as well as valuing inclusion and equality. 🔗 Check out Principal Chief Chuck Hoskin Jr.'s recent Chief Chat about building a thriving Cherokee Nation workforce: https://lnkd.in/gsxwAZcY

We photographed the 2024 Remember The Removal Bike Ride cyclists in Tahlequah in May before they left for their nearly 950-mile journey that started in New Echota, Georgia, and then again at the Pea Ridge National Military Park, two days before they rolled back into Tahlequah to officially end this year's ride. #RTR2024

    17 riders. 950 miles. 1 team. 𝐖𝐞𝐥𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞, #RTR2024 cyclists! 🚴♀️🚴♂️❤️ Earlier today, the Remember The Removal Bike Ride cyclists completed their three-week trek from New Echota, Georgia, when they rolled into Tahlequah and were greeted with a cheering crowd at a homecoming ceremony filled with friends and family and Cherokee Nation leaders. During the ride, the cyclists from the Cherokee Nation and the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians retraced the northern route of the Trail of Tears in honor of their ancestors who were forcibly removed from their homelands in the southeast United States 185 years ago. #RememberTheRemoval #NeverForget #RTR40 Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gHb_P5Xg
