Abstract:
The Cherokees who live on the Qualia Boundary Reservation in western North Carolina depend on tourism and bingo as their main sources of income. While successful in comparison with other tribes, 30 percent of the workforce is unemployed, 40 percent have incomes below the poverty level, and almost half receive federal aid. To improve this, the tribe is engaging in their first venture outside the reservation, purchasing Carolina Mirror of North Wilkesboro for $28.8 million. The company is the largest mirror manufacturer in the nation.
