The book explores the concept of asegi stories, which intertwine the meanings of "strange" and "Queer" within Cherokee culture. Through oral histories and archival research, it offers a unique LGBTQ2 perspective to reinterpret Cherokee history, engage with contemporary issues, and envision decolonial futures. By highlighting these narratives, the author aims to illuminate the complexities of identity and belonging in Cherokee society.
