#49 - Hiawatha - Legend
The story of Hiawatha on Ya-Native.com describes his role in the formation of the Iroquois Confederacy. Hiawatha, a leader among the Onondaga, suffered great personal loss and found guidance in the Peacemaker, Deganawida. Together, they traveled to various Iroquois nations, spreading the message of unity, peace, and democracy. Hiawatha's efforts led to the creation of the Great Law of Peace, which united the Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, and Seneca nations into a powerful alliance known as the Haudenosaunee, or the Iroquois Confederacy.
For more details, you can visit the Ya-Native page on Hiawatha.
Thank you for your continuing support. This Podcast is another tool for the Ya-Native Network, This may be the last stage to share our ideas openly.
Podcasting and videos are certainly outside my comfort zone, but it's a necessary means to help find a voice for those of us who can not be heard.
