Valarie McCay of the Cherokee Tribe of Northeast Alabama will share insight into how Cherokee Culture influences Cherokees and American life today. The Cherokee Tribe of Northeast Alabama is one of the nine tribes recognized by the State of Alabama with representation on the Alabama Indian Affairs Commission. Alabama is rich in Cherokee history, including some of the first written Cherokee laws being enacted in Alabama. Several of the earliest Cherokee delegations to Washington D.C. included Alabama Cherokees. Representative McCay is a certified Project Management Professional currently working at UAB.
