What is Cherhonkee?
1.
A white person who decks themselves in turqouise jewelry and other traditionally Native American apparel, and may also delve in other traditional (or even psuedo) Native American cultural artifacts, such as dreamcatchers and truck-stop-bought shirts with wolves on them. Derived from the word "Cherokee", a certain Native American tribe; and "honkey", a slur for whites.
Mike the Cherhonkee decks out his room in dreamcatchers to reflect his Native American ancestry, even though his ancestory stems from a great-great-great-great-great grandmother who wasn't even a Chippewa.
