Chief Junaluska of the Cherokees: A Story from the NOAC Coffeehouse

Church of the Brethren Newsline

September 8, 2015

Photo by Cheryl Brumbaugh-Cayford

A statue of Chief Junaluska stands outside the Stuart Auditorium at Lake Junaluska Conference Center

This is one of the stories shared at the NOAC Coffeehouse, submitted by Willard “Duly” Dulabaum:

Chief Junaluska was born around 1775 in North Carolina, near present day Dillard, Ga. A few days after his birth, he was given his original name when the cradle-board holding him fell over. He was called “Gu-Ka-Las-Ki” or” Gulkalaski” in the Cherokee language, meaning “one who falls from a leaning position” (1). A couple more revisions to his name followed into adulthood. He married Ni-suh, and had three children, boys Jim-my and Sic-que-yuh, and daughter Na-lih. He became a leader of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians residing in and around western North Carolina. He would go on to fight alongside Andrew Jackson and save his life at the Battle of Horseshoe Bend, a so-called “unsung hero of the greatest Indian battle in history” (2).

At one point, Chief Junaluska reportedly had sent word to Tecumseh that the Cherokee would not join an Indian confederacy against the whites. So when the Creek Indians in Alabama fought with the British in the War of 1812, the Cherokee raised an army to oppose them. Chief Junaluska personally recruited over 100 men for the Battle of Horseshoe Bend, and commanded 500 (2). Further, he assumed strategic leadership to help secure the decisive and famous victory near the end of the war. It was there that he tripped a prisoner of war who was lunging at Jackson with a knife.

When the Battle of Horseshoe Bend was over, Andrew Jackson was reported to have told Chief Junaluska: “As long as the sun shines and the grass grows, there shall be friendship between us, and the feet of the Cherokee shall be toward the east” (1, 2). But in a few years, Jackson was in the White House and set about to remove all the Cherokee to new homes in the West, in what would be called the Great Removal. At that point, Chief Junaluska was said to have second thoughts about having saved Jackson’s life.

During the infamous “Trail of Tears” in 1838, Chief Junaluska and others of the Cherokee Nation were incarcerated for a time, and then were among over 5,000 who were led over 800 miles in bands of 1,000 or more to land in Oklahoma, which was considered much less desirable. Chief Junaluska broke away once, leading a group of 50, but was captured. However, after a short time in what is now Oklahoma, he returned to the mountains of his birth by 1842, walking all the way! In 1847 the state legislature of North Carolina conferred upon him the right of citizenship and granted him a tract of land at what is now Robinsville. He died there in 1858 and was buried with his second wife (1) on a hill above the town where the Daughters of the American Revolution erected a monument to his memory.

A bronze plaque bolted to a great hunk of native stone replaced the earlier, traditional Cherokee pile of stones. It reads, in part: “Here lies the bodies of the Cherokee Chief, Junaluska, and Nic-ie, his wife. Together with his warriors he saved the life of General Jackson at the Battle of Horseshoe Bend, and for his bravery and faithfulness North Carolina made him a citizen and gave him land in Graham County.”

He has been memorialized by Lake Junaluska, Junaluska Creek, Junaluska Gap, Junaluska Ridge, the Junaluska Salamander, and Mount Junaluska (now known as North Eaglenest Mountain). And Brethren who attend the National Older Adult Conference gather around his statue before and after each session at the Lake Junaluska Assembly, where he appears regularly in group photographs and may even find a new future in “selfies.”

September 9, 2021 By Art Hughes Leave a Comment

Host: Alyssa Yáx Ádi Yádi London

In a state with a vaccination rate of just 44 percent, the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma reports a tribal employee rate of more than 70 percent. More than 90 percent of eligible tribal members in Virginia have received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. In states with low vaccination rates and high COVID resurgence numbers, many tribes are far outpacing their non-tribal neighbors and adhering to safety guidelines. We’ll hear from health experts and tribal leaders about the messages that are connecting with tribal citizens.

Guests:

Dr. Mary Owen (Tlingit) – director of the Center of American Indian and Minority Health at the University of Minnesota and the current president of the Association of American Indian Physicians

Capt. Matthew Clark – Indian Health Service COVID-19 Vaccine Task Force Safety and Monitoring Team lead

Candace Owens BRUTALLY Mocks Vaccine Agenda Of New York Gov Kathy Hochul On Tucker [VIDEO]

You know Candace brought the heat...

By Zach Heilman September 30, 2021

Image Credit: Gab TV screenshot

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) spoke out the other day to shame the unvaccinated while appearing before Brooklyn’s Christian Cultural Center.

Candace Owens came on Tucker Carlson Tonight and had a few words to say about her COVID Cult-like speech.

>>>FOLLOW US ON GAB<<< { https://gab.com/redvoicemedia }

Tucker Carlson:

Candles in the image of Tony Fauci. How ridiculous is the resurrection, would you say?

Candace Owens:

Oh, wait, you’re telling me you weren’t converted by Kathy. You weren’t converted by Governor Kathy. When you were watching her speak, I was converted. I’m an apostle now, and let me tell you, everything she’s saying is true. It’s very clear, Tucker, in the Bible. For those of you who read, what did Joe Biden call it, Pasalms? Yeah, the book of Pasalms, that our dedicated Catholic president. It tells you right there what that what Jesus Christ wanted was for us to get vaccinated. He also, by the way, wanted medical segregation, open borders, Hillary Clinton to win the 2016 election. I know it sounds like it’s just exactly what the democrats want. They pretend that it’s what God wants because that’s exactly what it is. And it’s so foolish, by the way, we’re talking about the Democratic Party. For her to invoke God, it is just such a joke, right? This is the party at their DNC convention, you will recall. They stripped the words under God from the Pledge of Allegiance because they said that that was too triggering, right? This is that party. This is the party that spent the last four years mocking Vice President Pence because of his Christian faith. This is the party that refers to people in the south as Bible Belt Christians as a pejorative. You know, so it’s just it’s so foolish they think that the American people are going to fall for this obvious scam. But you are correct. I have said this has moved from a public health crisis to a mental health crisis and obsession and a cult with COVID-19.

Tucker Carlson:

And of course, it’s narcissism. Pure narcissism. It’s just interesting, though. This is the party that lectured us for decades about science, believe the science, and here you have this low IQ shaman telling you that you have to get the shot because God wants you to. That sounds a lot like superstition, No?

Candace Owens:

It does sound superstition, but also if you want to be superstitious, can you explain to me Tucker, can somebody explain to me how right now in New York, we’re being told that just the unvaccinated are in the hospital, but also, they have to let go of 70,000 unvaccinated healthcare employees because apparently the unvaccinated are a risk to the unvaccinated. I mean, I can’t figure any of this stuff out, but you’re not supposed to understand a cult. You just do what they say.

Tucker Carlson:

That’s exactly right. And somehow, you just if I could, I probably shouldn’t even say this. But the last Governor of New York was horrible. He’s just a bad person, I would say, But you knew they were gonna get someone worse. I mean, Cuomo for all his many manifold faults. You cannot imagine him telling you the God demands you get the Vax. I think he would choke on those words. But maybe he would say it.

Candace Owens:

Honestly, I hate to say this, but I found that sermon to be even creepier than Governor Cuomo was. It’s incredibly creepy to invoke God and to pretend that you’ve had some awakening and that Christ is going through you and telling you to get the vaccine. Yeah, Christ wants you to make Pfizer a few more billion dollars, and then you can be converted.

Tucker Carlson:

Exactly. And when they fire his brother from CNN, he’ll be replaced by somebody worse. You watch. I see a theme here. Candace Owens, great to see you. Thank you.

Candace Owens: Thank you.

Czech central bank shocks with 75 basis-point interest rate increase

The Czech National Bank (CNB) raised its main rate by 75 basis points on Thursday, an even heftier policy tightening than markets and analysts had expected, delivering its biggest hike since 1997 as inflation soars. The two-week repo rate stands at 1.50% after the hike, the highest level since March 2020 when the central bank slashed its rates to support an economy hit by the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In a Reuters poll, all eight analysts had expected a 50-basis point hike that several central bankers had flagged in public comments.

Governor Jiri Rusnok was due to comment on the decision at a news conference at 3:45 p.m. (1345 GMT), where he will also present the board’s assessment of risks to the central bank’s macroeconomic outlook.

The crown jumped by 0.5% after the announcement, and traded at 25.30 to the euro at 1300 GMT, just off its highest level since February 2020 hit earlier this month. Shorter-dated interest rate swaps climbed up to 5 basis points after the decision.

Several central bankers have been concerned about a rise in inflation expectations, and the country’s tight labour market as factors adding to global price pressures. The Czech central bank is one of only two in the European Union to have started the tightening cycle, together with Hungary’s central bank. The latter slowed down its pace last week, however, when it raised its main rate by lower-than-expected 15 basis points.

Military Leaders Saw Pandemic As Unique Opportunity To Test Propaganda On Canadians: Report

by Tyler Durden

Authored by David Puliese via NationalPost.com,

https://nationalpost.com/news/national/defence-watch/military-leaders-saw-pandemic-as-unique-opportunity-to-test-propaganda-techniques-on-canadians-forces-report-says/

{ https://archive.ph/tYGgT }

A plan devised by the Canadian Joint Operations Command relied on propaganda techniques similar to those employed during the Afghan war...

Canadian military leaders saw the pandemic as a unique opportunity to test out propaganda techniques on an unsuspecting public, a newly released Canadian Forces report concludes.

The federal government never asked for the so-called information operations campaign, nor did cabinet authorize the initiative developed during the COVID-19 pandemic

by the Canadian Joint Operations Command, then headed by Lt.-Gen. Mike Rouleau.

But military commanders believed they didn’t need to get approval from higher authorities to develop and proceed with their plan, retired Maj.-Gen. Daniel Gosselin,

who was brought in to investigate the scheme, concluded in his report.

The propaganda plan was developed and put in place in April 2020 even though the Canadian Forces had already acknowledged that

“information operations and targeting policies and doctrines are aimed at adversaries and have a limited application in a domestic concept.”

A copy of the Dec. 2, 2020, Gosselin investigation, as well as other related documents, was obtained by this newspaper using the Access to Information law.

The plan devised by the Canadian Joint Operations Command, also known as CJOC, relied on propaganda techniques similar to those employed during the Afghanistan war.

The campaign called for “shaping” and “exploiting” information.

CJOC claimed the information operations scheme was needed to head off civil disobedience by Canadians during the coronavirus pandemic and to bolster government messages about the pandemic.

A separate initiative, not linked to the CJOC plan, but overseen by Canadian Forces intelligence officers, culled information from public social media accounts in Ontario.

Data was also compiled on peaceful Black Lives Matter gatherings and BLM leaders.

Senior military officers claimed that information was needed to ensure the success of Operation Laser,

the Canadian Forces mission to help out in long-term care homes hit by COVID-19 and to aid in the distribution of vaccines in some northern communities.

BLM organizers have questioned why military officials gathered information on their initiative, pointing out they followed pandemic rules and did not hold any gatherings outside LTC homes.

Then chief of the defence Staff Gen. Jon Vance shut down the CJOC propaganda initiative after a number of his advisers questioned the legality and ethics behind the plan.

Vance then brought in Gosselin to examine how CJOC was able to develop and launch the propaganda operation without approval.

Gosselin’s investigation discovered the plan wasn’t simply the idea of “passionate” military propaganda specialists, but support for the use of such information operations was

“clearly a mindset that permeated the thinking at many levels of CJOC.”

Those in the command saw the pandemic as a “unique opportunity” to test out such techniques on Canadians.

The views put forth by Rear Adm. Brian Santarpia, then CJOC’s chief of staff, summed up the command’s attitude, Gosselin noted in his report.

“This is really a learning opportunity for all of us and a chance to start getting information operations into our (CAF-DND) routine,” the rear admiral stated.

The command saw the military’s pandemic response “as an opportunity to monitor and collect public information in order to enhance awareness for better command decision making,”

Gosselin determined.

Gosselin also pointed out CJOC staff had a “palpable dismissive attitude” toward the advice and concerns raised by other military leaders.

The directive for the propaganda plan was issued by CJOC on April 8, 2020, but it took until May 2 of that year before Vance’s order to shut it down took effect.

Gosselin recommended a comprehensive review of Canadian Forces information operations policies and directives, particularly those that may impact any activities for domestic missions.

Yet another review centred on the Canadian Forces public affairs branch and its activities.

Last year, the branch launched a controversial plan that would have allowed military public affairs officers to use propaganda to change attitudes and behaviours

of Canadians as well as to collect and analyze information from public social media accounts.

The plan would have seen staff move from traditional government methods of communicating with the public to a more aggressive strategy

of using information warfare and influence tactics on Canadians.

Included among those tactics was the use of friendly defence analysts and retired generals to push military PR messages and to criticize

on social media those who raised questions about military spending and accountability.

{ statement innuendo: "Cambridge Analytica" }

The Canadian Forces also spent more than $1 million to train public affairs officers on behaviour modification techniques of the same sort used by the parent firm of Cambridge Analytica,

The initiative to change military public affairs strategy was abruptly shut down in November after this newspaper revealed details about the plan.

A military investigation determined what the Canadian Forces public affairs leadership was doing was

“incompatible with Government of Canada Communications Policy (and the) mission and principles of Public Affairs.”

None of the public affairs leadership was disciplined for their actions.

Several months ago, Acting Chief of the Defence Staff Gen. Wayne Eyre and DND deputy minister Jody Thomas acknowledged in an internal document that the various propaganda initiatives had gotten out of control. “Errors conducted during domestic operations and training, and sometimes insular mindsets at various echelons, have eroded public confidence in the institution,” noted a June 9, 2021, message signed by Eyre and Thomas. “This included the conduct of IO (Information Operations) on a domestic operation without explicit CDS/DM direction or authority to do so, as well as the unsanctioned production of reports that appeared to be aimed at monitoring the activities of Canadians.”

<> Facebook-Cambridge Analytica data scandal

Has Mark Zuckerberg’s total control of Facebook turned into a liability?

Congressional anger at damaging new revelations and a legal action resulting from the Cambridge Analytica affair have put the social media giant’s founder under renewed pressure

Senator Josh Hawley during the recent congressional hearing on social media companies. Photograph: Getty Images

For devotees of C-Span, the public-service media network that covers the US Congress, Tuesday was an interesting day. The Senate judiciary subcommittee on competition policy, antitrust and consumer rights held a hearing on the social media companies, which for most purposes meant Google and Facebook. It was intriguing in several ways. For one thing, the senators were exercised, sceptical and sometimes angered by the evasive cant served up by the corporate executives whom they had summoned. More importantly, the perceptible anger was bipartisan (a rare thing in the current Congress).

And lastly, some of the most aggressive questioning of the hapless Facebook representative came from Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri,

who is believed to be PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel’s preferred candidate for president in 2024.

And Thiel is a member of Facebook’s board of directors!

This congressional ire was triggered by a terrific scoop in the Wall Street Journal, which had got its hands on a trove of internal Facebook documents. These exposed the yawning chasm between Facebook’s public versions of its stance on various contentious issues and its internal discussions of them. Specifically, the trove showed that: at least 5.8 million high-profile users had been allowed to avoid the company’s normal enforcement processes; research by Instagram (owned by Facebook) had revealed the risk the platform poses to teenagers’ mental health (“We make body image issues worse for one in three teen girls” was one striking phrase); the company knew that its algorithms rewarded outrage; and it had been slow to stop drug cartels and human traffickers from using its platform.

These revelations were so stark that they even moved Facebook’s preposterous oversight board to publish a blog post on the matter. “In light of recent developments,” it bleated, “we are looking into the degree to which Facebook has been fully forthcoming in its responses in relation to cross-check, including the practice of whitelisting. The board has reached out to Facebook to request they provide further clarity about the information previously shared with us. We expect to receive a briefing from Facebook in the coming days…” Note the words “request”, “expect” and “further clarity”, which provide a neat illustration of the mendicant status of this ludicrous, virtue-signalling outfit.

Facebook is one of the most toxic corporations on the planet. Its toxicity has two roots. The first is its business model: intrusive and comprehensive surveillance of its users in order to compile profiles that enable advertisers to target messages at them. This business model is powered by the machine-learning algorithms that construct those profiles and determine what appears in the news feeds of the company’s 2.85 billion users. In large measure, it is the output of these algorithms that constitutes the focus of congressional anger and inquiry.

The other source of the company’s toxicity is its governance. Essentially, Facebook is a dictatorship entirely controlled by its founder, Mark Zuckerberg. This total control is ensured by a two-tier share ownership structure that gives him untrammelled power. The company’s regular regulatory filings describe it thus: “Mark Zuckerberg, our founder, chairman and CEO, is able to exercise voting rights with respect to a majority of the voting power of our outstanding capital stock and therefore has the ability to control the outcome of matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election of directors and any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets. This concentrated control could delay, defer, or prevent a change of control, merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets that our other stockholders support, or conversely this concentrated control could result in the consummation of such a transaction that our other stockholders do not support.”

Of course Facebook does have a board of directors, but they have as much agency as the ethics committee of an arms manufacturer. They are all appointed by Zuckerberg and serve at his pleasure and are thus, ultimately, his creatures. The significance of this subservience has been under-appreciated to date, but has just been dramatically highlighted by a lawsuit, filed in Delaware by the State of Rhode Island’s pension fund, which names all the members of the board as defendants.

The background is that in 2020 the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) ruled that Facebook had violated a “consent decree” about protecting users’ privacy that it had entered into in 2012 after the Cambridge Analytica scandal. The envisaged fine – $5bn – was huge and the commission held Zuckerberg as the guilty party, on account of his total control of the company. But the Facebook board of directors resisted, arguing that it was a company responsibility, not Zuckerberg’s, and accepted the fine as a corporate liability, thus saving the boss $5bn. As stockholders, the pension fund is not amused by this piece of chicanery and the casual appropriation of shareholders’ funds; hopefully, one the day the court will not be either. Stay tuned.

This article was amended on 29 September 2021 because an earlier version said that a lawsuit filed by the State of Rhode Island’s pension fund named all the members of Facebook’s board as “plaintiffs”. In fact they were named as defendants.

Facebook ‘overpaid in data settlement to avoid naming Zuckerberg’

Facebook paid $4.9bn more than necessary to the US Federal Trade Commission in a settlement

<>over the Cambridge Analytica scandal in order to protect Mark Zuckerberg, a lawsuit has claimed.

The lawsuit alleges that the size of the $5bn settlement was driven by a desire to protect Facebook’s founder and chief executive from being named in the FTC complaint.

Facebook was fined by the FTC in 2019 for “deceiving” users about its ability to keep personal information private, after a year-long investigation into the Cambridge Analytica data breach, where a UK analysis firm harvested millions of Facebook profiles of US voters.

“Zuckerberg, [chief operating officer Sheryl] Sandberg, and other Facebook directors agreed to authorise a multibillion settlement with the FTC as an express quid pro quo to protect Zuckerberg from being named in the FTC’s complaint, made subject to personal liability, or even required to sit for a deposition,” said the shareholder lawsuit filed in Delaware last month but made public this week.

The suit quotes a commissioner on the FTC, Rohit Chopra, who said the government “essentially traded getting more money, so that an individual did not have to submit to sworn testimony and I just think that’s fundamentally wrong”.

The lawsuit claims that the settlement was approximately $4.9bn more than Facebook’s “maximum exposure under the applicable statute”.

If Zuckerberg had been personally named in the complaint he could have faced substantial fines for future violations and would have suffered “extensive reputational harm”, the suit claims. It adds: “The risk would have been highly material to Zuckerberg, who is extraordinarily sensitive about his public image and has been reported to have political ambitions.”

The suit also accuses Facebook of a lax approach to corporate governance, particularly regarding its founder. “The board has never provided a serious check on Zuckerberg’s unfettered authority. Instead, it has enabled him, defended him, and paid billions of dollars from Facebook’s corporate coffers to make his problems go away.”

In a post on his own Facebook page after the fine was announced, Zuckerberg said the company had transformed the way it handled users’ information.

“We’ve agreed to pay a historic fine, but even more important, we’re going to make some major structural changes to how we build products and run this company,” he wrote.

Facebook declined to comment on the new lawsuit but referred the Guardian to a recent tweet from Andy Stone, a spokesperson who wrote: “Portraying this as some kind of new allegation is wrong. The suggestion that we overpaid or underpaid on this settlement isn’t new and is something we will address during the litigation.”

Statement by the Prime Minister on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation

The Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, today issued the following statement on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation: “Today, I invite everyone across the country to recognize and observe the first National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. It is a day to reflect on the painful and lasting impacts of residential schools in Canada, and to honour survivors, their families, and their communities. It is also a day to remember the many children who never returned home, and an opportunity for us all to learn more, and to affirm the need for reconciliation and commit ourselves to the work ahead. “The National Day for Truth and Reconciliation recognizes that at least 150,000 Indigenous children from across the country were forcibly separated from their families and their communities. Children were brought to residential schools where too many experienced abuse and were removed from their cultures, languages, and traditions. This federal day builds on the momentum of Orange Shirt Day, which was inspired by the story of Phyllis Webstad and chosen by Indigenous peoples to remember the legacy of residential schools and promote the path of reconciliation. The National Day for Truth and Reconciliation was established through legislation passed earlier this spring, and is a direct response to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Call to Action number 80. As part of commemorations for this historic day, I was honoured to participate in a sunset ceremony to commemorate survivors and those who never returned to their families and communities, as the Peace Tower and other buildings near Parliament Hill were illuminated in orange, and a newly commissioned Survivors’ Flag from the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation was raised.

Deputy Pima County Attorney Found Dead In Apparent Accident

Deputy Pima County Attorney Chris Straub, 64, was found dead Wednesday, in what appears to be an accident during a fishing trip, according to a news release from the county. Straub's wife reported him missing when he did not return from a fishing trip to Oak Creek Canyon, near Sedona on Tuesday, the county said.

Straub, who worked for the Pima County Attorney's office in Tucson for more than 30 years, was found in an area of thick overgrowth by deputies with the Coconino County Sheriff's Department, according to the news release. Although it appeared that Straub suffered a fatal accident, his death is still under investigation, the county said. An autopsy by the Coconino County Medical Examiner is planned to determine his cause of death.

"Our thoughts and condolences are with Chris' family and everyone who loved him," said Pima County Attorney Laura Conover in the release.

Virgin Galactic shares surge after FAA clears it for launch, ends probe

Shares of Virgin Galactic surged almost ten percent after the Federal Aviation Administration said it has closed its investigation into a “mishap” on the company’s July 11 flight that carried its billionaire founder Sir Richard Branson into space — allowing the company to resume launches after a nearly month-long suspension.

The federal agency grounded Virgin Galactic earlier this month after media reports revealed that the company’s spacecraft went off course during the widely watched flight that carried Branson and five other crew members to space. “The investigation found the Virgin Galactic SpaceShipTwo vehicle deviated from its assigned airspace on its descent from space. The FAA also found Virgin Galactic failed to communicate the deviation to the FAA as required,” a representative for the federal regulator said Wednesday evening.

“The FAA required Virgin Galactic to implement changes on how it communicates to the FAA during flight operations to keep the public safe. Virgin Galactic has made the required changes and can return to flight operations.” The news that Branson’s widely watched launch into space had in fact not gone as smoothly as it appeared in the onboard livestream and media coverage of the launch was difficult to digest for shareholders.

After the FAA’s investigation, which barred the company from any more launches until the probe was closed, shares of Virgin Galactic fell almost ten percent in intraday trading. “We appreciate the FAA’s thorough review of this inquiry. Our test flight program is specifically designed to continually improve our processes and procedures. The updates to our airspace and real-time mission notification protocols will strengthen our preparations as we move closer to the commercial launch of our spaceflight experience,” Virgin Galactic CEO Michael Colglazier said Wednesday in a statement.

The FAA’s announcement will allow Virgin Galactic to go ahead with its “Unity 23” launch with the Italian Air Force some time in mid-October, as previously announced.
