    The Ancestors Were Here

    "Oral arguments in the Muscogee (#Creek) Nation, et al v. #PoarchBand of Creek Indians, et al. were heard today (Sept. 25) before the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta, Ga. The appeal is for a suit filed against the Poarch Band of Creek Indians for building a casino resort on the site of Hickory Ground's sacred burial ground in #Wetumka, Alabama.

    "#HickoryGround Ceremonial members marched to the courthouse this morning to sit in on the arguments and show their support.

    "In a press conference immediately following, lawyer #MaryKathrynNagle (#Cherokee) thanked the court for accommodating the Nation and members of Hickory Ground. She explained it is now up to the three judges hearing the case to decide what happens next, a decision could take months to be handed down due to the complicated nature of the case. Mekko George Thompson described his as a 'monumental day'.

    "Muscogee Creek Nation Principal Chief praised Nagle's efforts in the case and expounded on the importance of continuing to fight for #Mvskokvlke ancestors. 'It's been a long battle,' Chief Hill said. 'The things that are being done now are to prevent things that will happen in the future.'

    "The Nation's next stop on their '#JourneyForJustice' is #OxfordAlabama."
