The Six Nations whose Great Law of Peace inspired American democracy.
Iroquois People — the Haudenosaunee, the People of the Longhouse, the confederacy of the Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, Seneca, and Tuscarora nations whose Great Law of Peace, the Gayanashagowa, established centuries before European contact a constitutional framework of confederate governance, individual rights, clan-based representation, and collective decision-making whose influence on Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, and the framers of the American Constitution the United States Congress formally acknowledged in 1988. The Haudenosaunee world — whose longhouse civilization of the northeastern woodlands organized society through the matrilineal clan system whose women owned the longhouses, controlled the food supply, and held the authority to appoint and remove the male sachems who represented their clans in the Grand Council at Onondaga, whose Iroquois Confederacy's military and diplomatic power made the Six Nations the pivotal force in the colonial rivalry between Britain and France whose alliance each power courted with gifts, treaties, and respect, whose Haudenosaunee passport — the travel document issued by the Six Nations to their citizens that several countries recognize today as a valid travel document — asserts a sovereignty that predates the United States and outlasts every attempt to reduce it, and whose language revitalization, cultural renewal, and lacrosse tradition, the Creator's game invented by the Haudenosaunee, carry the Great Law's living spirit into the present. This interactive t-shirt connects you to that democratic and sovereign legacy with a QR code linking to the full story.
