Just two weeks ago, Cherokee Nation Principal Chief Chuck Hoskin, Jr., issued an executive order to “cause all flags of the State of Oklahoma to be removed from Cherokee Nation properties” by Sept. 1, the latest escalation in the quarrel between the State of Oklahoma (and Governor Kevin Stitt) and tribal nations (the Cherokee Nation in particular).
After receiving overwhelming backlash from within the Cherokee Nation, Hoskin has now reversed course. From The Frontier reporter Reese Gorman:
Chief Chuck Hoskin says the flag of the State of Oklahoma will return to Cherokee Nation properties.

Two weeks ago he signed an EO that would not allow the flag of Oklahoma to be flown on Cherokee properties except under certain circumstances. https://t.co/v4XAFnbqs3
