- Cherokees for Black Indian History Preservation Foundation -
CBIHP (Cherokees for Black Indian History Preservation Foundation) is a Cherokee history and culture organization located in Tahlequah Oklahoma, the capital of the Cherokee Nation. CBIHP seeks to preserve the Native American narrative with primary emphasis on understanding Black Indian History. The foundation's focus is on Black Indian history because it is not well known and is being lost. With an eye on the future, the Foundation's central goal is to keep Native American history and culture alive through education, promotion and community outreach for present and future generations. We are dedicated to sharing our knowledge through literature, film, music and the spoken word. In doing so, we will honor our ancestors.
After only 2 years of being 501c3 non-profit, CBIHP was awarded the Cherokee Nation Community & Cultural Outreach(CCO) Non-profit of the year award in 2017. CBIHP members, with the help and guidance of Cherokee historian Karen Coody Cooper, have edited a book about Black Cherokee history (Oklahoma Black Cherokees) The book was published on August 28, 2017.
Currently the CBIHP Foundation is working on several projects. The Cherokee History Symposium which will be held in Tahlequah, Oklahoma at 100 N Water Ave., June 21-23, 2024.
