Fort Niagara and the Haudenosaunee
Jordan Smith (who is Mohawk, Bear Clan, and works at Fort Niagara) discusses the historical significance of the fort and the impact that colonialism and the American Revolution had on the Haudenosaunee (also known as the Iroquois and Six Nations). Smith spoke with Brendan Maslauskas Dunn of WOOC about the displacement, land theft, war, and refugee crisis the Haudenosaunee encountered as well as their continued resistance and resilience.
