![]() The applomb with which the Lenape met the European invasion is refelected in their acceptence of the European designation of "Delaware" indians. This misnomer was borne, no doubt with some sense of humor, because this society was a mature one and secure in their identity, and a wise one who recognized there was no way to stop the overwhelming heedlessness and rapacity of the European "settlers". We believe that the spirit of the True People still permeates the very land and waterways of the Neversink River valley today; and we recognize its unseen guiding influence within our communities and society. -NC |
