Sage Against The Machine Episode 27: Judgement

Sage Against the Machine

Decolonization, Assimilation, Acculturation, Adulteration

Native people. Indigenous. Onkwehonwe, the original people of this continent. 

We have a bright future ahead of us, as we clamber out of the rubble of history and into our bright new future. We build that future now, the choices we make today will carry forward, and determine if our communities in our cultures survive, thrive, or wither away into nothing.

There are a variety of ways to achieve societal goals, and among the cornerstones of a functioning free society is fair and consistent dispute resolution.

While here at SATM we hearken to homegrown solutions founded in indigenous lifeways, whatever that means, we have a parchwork of semi-functional organizations doing things each and everyday, whether it is our preferred construct or not, these organizations exist and act.

One of those systems is a tribal Court, it is operating, adjudicating, deciding, vindicating and even punishing human beings on the daily. Every court requires a judge, and many in Akwesasne are unhappy with the current one. 

With the coming election, the job is up for grabs, and our guest today hopes to be picked for that seat. We have a fabulous conversation with a sharp woman who has led an interesting life, and returns to potentially serve our community.
