In the north country of upstate New York, in a world known as “stretching turtle,” live today’s Tonawanda Seneca people. Members of the “Six Nations,” their ancient government – the “Iroquois Confederacy” – inspired the Founders of a young United States. With this journey to Iroquois Country, BackPax takes listener/adventurers to the heart and soul of an old people – origins of a new nation. Meet the children and their chief. Share their songs, folklore, history, and laughter. Hear the story of the Creation, as it has been told across the centuries. Thrill to tales of nature’s wonders from modern times back to the days When Rabbits Danced. Recorded on location on the Tonawanda Indian Reservation, New York. Perfect for ages 6 and older.
