Read the excerpt from "Rebuilding the Cherokee Nation.”Another thing that I saw was great leadership in our communities, and leadership again, it’s kind of like the way I talked about looking at government. Our government may have not looked like the US government, but it’s a government and the leadership we saw in our communities may not have looked like leadership that you see in the external world, but the leadership existed. You could find the leadership just by seeing who people go to when there’s a time of crisis in the community.Courtesy of the Wilma Mankiller Trust
