Every town has a first chapter, and Cherokee is no exception. Qualla Arts and Crafts, one of the oldest Native American artisan cooperatives in the country, was organized on August 23, 1946. That day 59 charter members signed its constitution. Many people still spoke Cherokee as their first language, so first president McKinley Ross translated the whole meeting into Cherokee before the vote. That's from the Cherokee One Feather.
Cherokee is a community in Swain County. The Census Bureau counted 2,195 people here in 2020.
