I wish I could go back and edit my original comment that I posted when I signed this petition. I would like to add my tribal affiliation. I am a proud member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation. I live in South Carolina, and I am new to worshiping and celebrating with my brothers and sisters at Keepers of the Word. Being so far from my own tribe, I am forever grateful that the Creator has led me to finding a place where I can share my Indian heritage with members of other tribes, and practice our traditional spiritual ceremonies. This land, these people, are a vital part of South Carolina history and culture, to the Native people in the area, and to the future of our Indian culture.
Treat the earth well: it was not given to you by your parents, it was loaned to you by your children. We do not inherit the Earth from our Ancestors, we borrow it from our Children.

It would be right and healing to honor the intent of the Coachman Grant of 1738.
