Mohican Homelands Education Initiative Presents: Stockbridge-Munsee Community: Past, Present, Future
BeECO hosted an all-ages educational event featuring the Mohican Homelands Education Initiative, which is a Tribal–College partnership between Williams College and the Stockbridge-Munsee Community.
The interactive presentation explored the Mohican people’s history, enduring cultural traditions, and ongoing connection to both their ancestral homelands and present-day community in Wisconsin.
Participants engaged in hands-on experiences, including viewing artifacts and sampling traditional chicory tea. The event concluded with a visit to the Native Plant Garden outside Town Hall, where attendees learned about the ceremonial offering of tobacco as an expression of gratitude.
We were pleased to be joined by Sherry White, the Stockbridge-Munsee Tribal Liaison.
