Cherokee Traditions: Kanuchi

The Cherokee language is so beautiful to listen too.like a song bird singing.💞♥

I know my heroes when I see their work

I'm a cowboy here in Texas but my mom's family is in Floyd County Kentucky. My granny was of Irish background and my grandfather was of the Cherokee Nation. I was 3 when he died. I barely remember him. Like the rest of my mom's family he was a life long coal miner. He smoked hand rolled cigarettes and he died of black lung. I would have loved to have walked in the mountains just one time with him

The Log and pounding Stick is like The one in my Grandma moms Kitchen when i was little it is beautiful to see this tradition being kept alive

Thank you for sharing this wonderful tradition!

Love to learn the old ways,glad you are making videos and teaching.keep it alive!♥️

this was interesting, being part Cherokee myself and yearning to know more about my family.

I'm TARRAHUMARA descendant. We EXIST in the U.S.A. n we're Not Recognized. So the Tribe is recognized in Chihuahua Mexico n the surrounding areas. RISE UP CHEROKEE ! WE(all natives of this continant)HAVE SURVIVAL IN COMMON. 6 Flags have flown over Texas n we're still here. Stand Strong in FAITH !

Thank you for sharing. Keep that heritage coming and safe from being lost.

Beautiful history, carried on. Just beautiful.

It is a beautiful thing, the language being kept alive.

Wa Do for sharing

Wado! Thank you for keeping the old ways alive, and making these videos. For those of us whose families were not there to sign the rolls and who are now not truly considered Tsalagi, it is the closest we can come to knowing the ways or our ancestors.

I love kenuche. I think I could live on kenuche and fry bread.I am so glad you made this video. A lot of people who knew how are sadly no longer with us. Wado!

The young people are here, unfortunately perhaps not your own children though. Some of us have their hands over our ears, but each one we can reach out and touch will have a choice to move forward with eyes open, or not. Its not a decision anyone else can make. Please keep reaching out and teaching, there is true value in knowledge which all cultures possess. This is a very dated video by the time this comment was created, but I hope it brings some relief and inspiration to anyone reading. Believe in your true self and the path, whatever that may be to you personally. 🙏

Please teach the young ones everyday. God bless.

Seeing this brought Tears to my eyes, remembering Momma and the Sisters preparing this Trwasured Delicacy. Wado for sharing this. Osda.

I've heard that some hickory trees do not produce good eating nuts. Is there a specific kind of Hickory tree for us to grow or look for? Wado for this nigada. So grateful!

Great video! I am not cherokee, (I am Choctaw) but am currently learning basic conversation. So learning the culture is great along side it!!

Thank you for sharing
