Show Notes
There's an old story that goes back centuries: that the Haudenosaunee (Six Nations) trace their origins back to a solar eclipse.
Ahead of next month's total eclipse, we hear from a member of the Onondaga Nation about the tale, that a solar eclipse nearly 900 years ago led to the unification of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy.
Onondaga Nation Council Member and teacher at the Onondaga Nation School Bradley Powless spoke with WRVO's Ava Pukatch for the New York Pubic News Network.
