Reflections on the Waters that are Never Still

Reflections on the Waters that Are Never Still is a collection of contemporary poetry, fiction, creative non-fiction, essays, and visual art from the Stockbridge-Munsee Band of Mohican Nation community. From the introduction: "We are the seventh generation. Our ancestors fought for the Union Army in America's Civil war 150 years ago. We are the seventh generation of the Mohican Nation, Stockbridge-Munsee Indians, now living in Wisconsin. Our people are the Mo He Con New, the people of the waters that are never still. Our ancestors were removed from our home lands in the East. Mohican warriors fought for our survival in every war to keep us safe. Our ancestors were the seven generations before us and seven generations before them met Henry Hudson in 1609 along the tidal waters called Muhheakunnuk. We are the seventh generation, still fighting to keep our lands, our culture and language for our future generations. Our heritage and history, the bravery, courage, strength, and endurance of past generations will not be forgotten. We are the generation now planning for our future seven generations.
