Daniel Coleman: Deyohahá:ge: Sharing the River of Life

  • Homewood Suites by Hilton 40 Bay Street South Hamilton, ON, L8P 1H7 Canada (map)

Deyohahá:ge:, “two roads or paths” in Cayuga language, evokes the Covenant Chain-Two Row Wampum, known as the “grandfather of the treaties.” Famously, this Haudenosaunee wampum agreement showed how Indigenous people and newcomers could build peace and friendship by respecting each other’s cultures, beliefs, and laws as they shared the river of life. Join the book’s editors Daniel Coleman (Grandfather of the Treaties: Finding Our Future Through the Wampum Covenant), Ki'en Debicki, and Bonnie M. Freeman for a conversation about the significance of the Two Row Wampum and how it might restore good relations today.
