1988
Overview
\"Our traditions survive in doing things the Mohawk way,\" says Katsi Cook, a Mohawk midwife. \"Our whole ceremonial life, our cosmological life, is based on nature. Without that river, we lose Akwesasne.\" While various Mohawk factions have clashed over issues like bingo and slot machines, an overriding concern for the environment has fostered close co-operation on pollution studies, says Henry Lickers. As director of the environmental division of the Mohawk Band Council, he's been fighting pollution for 12 years. It is one of many pollution studies co-ordinated by Mohawk health officials. In the early 1970s, Cornell University veterinarians documented fluoride poisoning of Mohawk cattle. About the same time, a University of Montana scientist found high fluoride levels in plant samples from Cornwall Island.
