Onondaga Chief Jake Edwards To Speak in New Paltz

Presentation: Honoring Native Treaties and Protecting the Earth
Wednesday, November 14 at 7 pm
New Paltz Community Center, 1 Veteran Drive & Route 32, New Paltz  map

Onondaga Nation Chief Jake Edwards will speak about the history of the Haudenosaunee and their relations with immigrants to these shores. Organizers from the Two Row Wampum Renewal Campaign will talk about that 2013 campaign which will come through the Hudson Valley.

The Two Row Wampum Campaign is a statewide educational and advocacy campaign organized by the Onondaga Nation and Neighbors of the Onondaga Nation/Syracuse Peace Council, a Syracuse-based community organization. 2013 is the 400th anniversary of the Two Row Wampum Treaty, the first treaty between the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) and Europeans. The treaty outlines a commitment to living in peace and friendship forever, meaning sustainably.

A symbolic enactment of the treaty, with Haudenosaunee and other native people paddling side-by-side with supporters down the Hudson River will start in Albany on July 28, 2013 and end in New York City on August 9. Passing through the Hudson Valley, the campaign is seeking support and organizational co-sponsorships in the region.

The presentation is free and open to the public. For more information, call NOON at 315-472-5478 or Sally Bermanzohn at 845-658-3805.
