For several decades the male dominated power structure in Onondaga has tried to keep Haudenosaunee women out of lacrosse in order to maintain their dominance over the Iroquois Nationals men's lacrosse team. After facing pressure from lucrative sponsors and outside organizations to merge the two teams under one banner, a delegation from the men's team spoke to the Grand Council of Six Nations at an unusual closed-door session and the women's team was disbanded without justification shortly after. The women were not given an opportunity to defend themselves and their team's sanction was pulled by the Grand Council which made it impossible for them to compete at the international level. In this episode, John is joined by Katie Smith, Erin Francis and Kathy Smith to peel back the curtain on the inner-workings of Haudenosaunee politics and to discuss these troubling developments. →→→→ Like what you hear?
