I recently got a long-overdue start on a project that means a lot to me: learning the Cherokee language. It's daunting, it's more than a little overwhelming, and each lesson gently liquifies my brain. But it's also been fun! And surprisingly emotional! And I want to talk about it a little!

They are attacking my family, directly. When will they attack yours?
