In this segment of Moccasin Tracks broadcast June 14, 2017 from the campus of the University of Vermont, WRUV FM Burlington we talk to Doug Harris(Deputy Narragansett Indian Tribe Historic Preservation Officer)and attorney for the Narragansett Nation in this effort, Anne Marie Garti.
We talk about the identified Ceremonial Stone Landscape in the path of the Connecticut Transfer Expansion Pipeline (Gas) and the efforts to protect. Doug reminds us of the language we use and how the language of the ancient
ones describe and have more to tell us today. We talk about the NHPA (National Historic Preservation Act) and Doug helps us to understand the perspective of the original peoples. We celebrate the family relationships (cousins) between the peoples and he gifts us with stories relating to place and ceremonies. His responsibility is to avoid adverse effects on the "prayer stones" and continue to teach the youth how to identify these sites so they may continue to protect their sacred sites and spiritual ways.
