“We Are Cherokee”
In this roundtable, convened by Alaina E. Roberts, historian Julie L. Reed and two Cherokee Nation employees, Melissa Payne and Karen Shade-Lanier, discuss the groundbreaking exhibit “We Are Cherokee: Cherokee Freedmen and the Right to Citizenship.” One of the five Southeastern tribes to enslave Black women and men in the 1700s and 1800s, the Cherokees also spent decades after emancipation discriminating against their former slaves, eventually il…
The 1619 Project Forum
Why has the American Historical Review commissioned nineteen scholars to review the 1619 Project? There is no precedent in the history of the journal for a review forum of this scope and magnitude. Without question, the 1619 Project has become a very public flash point within academic and public debates centered on the work history does in the world. Its creator, Nikole Hannah-Jones, won a Pulitzer Prize for her lead essay that opened the project…

There Is No Cherokee Syllabary at Red Bird River Shelter (15CY52)
Despite new arguments by Tankersley and Weeks that we misinterpreted petroglyph engravings and ignored site formation processes at the Red Bird River Shelter in Kentucky (15CY52), we remain convinced that there is no evidence for Cherokee Syllabary writing at the site. The petroglyphs are clearly not symbols present in any version of the Cherokee Syllabary. There is no empirical evidence for any site formation processes that have altered the shel…

The Red Bird River Shelter (15CY52) Revisited
This article reanalyzes petroglyphs from the Red Bird River Shelter (15CY52), a small sandstone shelter in Kentucky. In 2009-2013, it was claimed that some of the carvings at the site represented the earliest known examples of Cherokee Syllabary writing, dating to the first two decades of the nineteenth century. It was also suggested that Sequoyah, the Cherokee artist and intellectual who invented the Cherokee Syllabary in the early nineteenth ce…
Dawn Peterson. Indians in the Family
Dawn Peterson’s Indians in the Family examines “adoption” practices by white families from the Revolutionary era through Indian removal. In nine chapters organized around case studies, she describes beliefs that governed decisions by individuals’ to “adopt” Native children (a term I will revisit later). Peterson argues that U.S. politicians associated these arrangements with “settler expansion”; for Native southerners this fostered “political, ec…
The Cherokee Diaspora
Writers interested in Cherokees often spill ink on Indian removal, rightfully emphasizing the defining event for the burgeoning United States and for the native nations impacted by it. Gregory D. Smithers's chronology, which covers 1756 to 1945, underscores his interest in understanding removal within a longer period and the context of settler colonial disruption that informed “migration [and] resettlement” (pp. 7, 23). This and his emphasis on n…
