Witness to Injustice is a unique three-hour interactive group
educational experience. It uses an experiential, participatory model to share
the disturbing history of what Indigenous Peoples have experienced through
colonization with a focus on the experience of the Onondaga Nation and other
Haudenosaunee Peoples. The program seeks to foster truth, understanding and
respect between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples in the part of the world
now known as the United States; especially in the territory stewarded by people
of the Onondaga Nation and other Haudenosaunee peoples. It was created in
collaboration with Kairos Canada and involves facilitation by Onondaga Nation
citizens and non-Indigenous allies.  Witness to Injustice is a project of
Neighbors of the Onondaga Nation / Syracuse Peace Council.


This project was made possible with the funds from the Statewide
Community Regrants Program, a regrant program of the New York State Council on
the Arts with the support of the Governor's Office and the New York State
Legislature and administered by CNY Arts.
