Efforts the Cherokee made to assimilate into white American society and stay where they were in Georgia were to farm, dress like the white people, and learn English.
Currently there are Cherokee living in all continental states; as part of an 'education' plan by the BIA (Bureau of Indian Affairs) Cherokee's were shipped around the nation to 'integrate' them into white society.
The original name of the Cherokee is "Tsalagi" when pronounced it sounds very close to Cherokee. White settlers could not speak the name properly, and so they got labeled as "Cherokee." The old meaning of Tsalagi is debated, it is agreed that today the name means "Real People" to show that natives are real, and that white society is not real (or is not human).
