DESCRIPTION:Explore the history and ongoing efforts of the Haudenosaunee Co
 nfederacy Mohawk Nation to preserve their language and culture for future 
 generations. For decades\, Native American children were taken from their 
 families and forced to attend boarding schools where their languages were 
 banned. However\, in 1979\, the Akwesasne Freedom School was founded to co
 mbat this loss. Today\, the school plays a vital role in revitalizing the 
 Mohawk language and traditions\, providing a place where children and adul
 ts can reconnect with their heritage. Come learn more about this powerful 
 story of cultural resilience and the inspiring work being done to safeguar
 d Mohawk identity for generations to come.
