We meet Cherokee designer Kenny Glass who creates one-of-a-kind pieces by blending traditional patterns with bold colors and contemporary design. We join in on a Cherokee tradition of harvesting wishi, a mushroom and coveted delicacy led by the teachings of our elders. Many people are not aware the Cherokee Nation has its own police force. The Cherokee Marshal Service serves the Nation's 14 counties in jurisdiction but with a mission to help wherever they are needed. In our Cherokee Almanac, we learn the story of a young 19th century Cherokee woman named Catharine Brown and how she navigated the uncertain times.
