200 years ago, in the wilds of the then American frontier, Sequoyah, the Cherokee Cadmus, introduced his writing system to the members of his tribe that had moved west to escape the influence of the white man. Some thought it frivolous, some thought it sorcery...but Sequoyah was able to demonstrate his syllabary's usefulness. In just a few years it would be adopted by the entire tribe with a literacy rate much higher than their white neighbors. Sequoyah's writing system is a major component of Cherokee language preservation today. www.withinpodcast.com
