A chronic perception in North America is that native people are breaking the laws of the dominant groups. What is really happening is that the dominant group is encroaching on native jurisdiction. If people would respect each others space and jurisdiction and allow native people their own jurisdiction, they would get along peacefully. All would be stronger. As women we know that we have a better relationship with men when we are strong.
Men relate better to stronger women.
Strong women create a stronger society. One dominating the other does not make a strong society. In Wampums 5 to 11of the Great Law each nation keeps control over its own affairs, its dealings with other nations. Violence is provoked when dominant groups try to control minority cultures. The smaller the culture the harder they will fight to survive.
