Chiefs special presentation of Residency Videos now available on kahnawake.com

01/18/2016

The Mohawk Council of Kahnawà:ke (MCK)  wishes to advise the community that a new video presentation recently released on Paul’s Cable featuring Membership Portfolio Ietsénhaienhs Kahsennenhawe Sky-Deer and Arlene Jacobs is now also available on the MCK website at www.kahnawake.com/residency under the Related Videos tab.

In the forty minute video the Chiefs introduce, explain and discuss the series of Residency information videos that were introduced on a weekly basis throughout the Fall of 2015. The new presentation features all eight of the Residency videos.

“We’ve had lots of reaction to the Residency video snapshots,” said Ietsénhaienhs Sky-Deer. “We felt that it was a good idea to tie the whole series together by explaining the rationale for its creation and by filling in some of the gaps in the information – since the videos are just brief vignettes.”

“With Hearings on the proposed amendments to the Kahnawà:ke Membership Law resuming on January 26th, this is a good time to provide important information on why Kahnawà:ke finds itself in the unique situation it is in today,” she added. “This is our history and we make better decisions when we are able to learn from it.”
