Today we welcome Scott Peters to Sage to share his experience as and elected Chief for The Mohawk Council of Akwesasne in the District of Tsisnaihne. Our frank and earnest discussion may shed some light on the workings of The Northern Portion of Akwesasne, and what it takes to get our needs met.
Some of us at Sage have been known to be hypercritical of the elective bodies placed in our communities.
In Haudenosaunee Country tension has existed between Originalist/Traditionalist versus Western Influenced and outright Imposed elective systems. The tale of imperialism is as old as recorded history.
While we may have a difference in ideology the fact remains these organizations administer vital services that Akwesasronon rely upon, interface with the powers that be, and employ hundreds of our friends and family who work diligently to keep the lights on each and every day.
Many thanks to Scott for spending the time to talk with us and for trying to keep up the good fight.
