Beschreibung
"The first collection of its kind, this anthology by members of the Mohawk Warrior Society uncovers a hidden history and paints a bold portrait of the spectacular experience of Kanien'kehâa:ka survival and self-defense. Providing extensive documentation, context, and analysis, the book features foundational writings by prolific visual artist and polemicist Louis Karoniaktajeh Hall (1918-1993)--such as his landmark 1979 pamphlet, The Warrior's Handbook, as well as selections of his pioneering artwork. This book contains new oral history by key figures of the Rotisken'rhakâehte's revival in the 1970s, and tells the story of the Warriors' famous flag, their armed occupation of Ganienkeh in 1974, and the role of their constitution, the Great Peace, in guiding their commitment to freedom and independence. We hear directly the story of how the Kanien'kehâa:ka Longhouse became one the most militant resistance groups in North America, gaining international attention with the Oka Crisis of 1990. This auto-history of the Rotisken'rhakâehte is complemented by a Mohawk history timeline from colonization to the present, a glossary of Mohawk political philosophy, and a new map of Iroquoia in Mohawk language. At last, the Mohawk Warriors can tell their own story with their own voices, and to serve as an example and inspiration for future generations struggling against the environmental, cultural, and social devastation cast upon the modern world."

Über den Autor
Louis Karoniaktajeh Hall
(1918–1993) was a prolific Kanien'kehá:a painter
and writer from
Kahnawake, whose work continues to inspire generations of indigenous
people
today. A man of all trades, Karoniaktajeh worked as a butcher, a
carpenter, and
a mason. Initially groomed for a life in the priesthood, Karoniaktajeh
(on the
edge of the sky) began his life as a devout Christian before later
turning
against what he saw as the fallacies of European religion, and deciding
to
reintegrate himself into the traditional Longhouse and help revive “the
old
ways.” Appointed as the Secretary of the Ganienkeh Council Fire, he
became a prominent defender of indigenous sovereignty, and was
instrumental in the reconstitution of the Rotisken’rhakéhte (Mohawk
Warrior
Society). His distinctive artwork includes the iconic Unity Flag, which
still
symbolizes indigenous pride across Turtle Island (North America). His
legacy as
a revivor and innovator of traditional Mohawk culture includes his works
The
Warrior’s Handbook
(1979) and Rebuilding the Iroquois Confederacy (1980).
Both these texts, which served during their time as a political and cultural
call to arms for indigenous communities across Turtle Island, were initially
printed by hand and distributed in secret.
