Jodi Lynn MaracleBuffalo, NY, United States
Dec 11, 2014 — She:kon Sewakwekon- Chief Ava Hill from Six Nations wrote a letter to Mayor Byron Brown supporting a swift name change of the island. ( http://buffalorising.com/2014/12/chief-hill-asks-mayor-brown-to-support-renaming-of-squaw-island/#comment-340575 ) We will also be submitting letters from the Seneca Nation of Indians as well as the Tuscarora Nation. Hopefully this will help keep the matter moving forward to resolution rather than falling to the wayside as in previous attempts. We have begun an allied organization called Nekanehsakt: Friends of the Ekwehewe. Tuscarora for: Tow houses standing next to each other: Friends of the Onkwehonwe/Native peoples. Please like us on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/nekanehsakt ) and follow us on tumblr (http://nekanehsakt.tumblr.com/) for continued udates on this and many other matters coming up in the future. Niawen! Jodi Lynn Maracle
