Tonawanda Seneca Land Rights

Against all odds, and in spite of decades of effort by the State of New York and the United States to remove the Senecas altogether, the Tonawanda Seneca Nation has successfully fought to preserve its small, biologically diverse reservation territory and to maintain its cultural and spiritual ways. Join Christine Abrams (Tonawanda Seneca Beaver Clan) as she discusses the Nation’s history, culture, and current threats in the form of a massive industrial development along its borders.
