Akwesasne, moment of truth : ICT [2003/05/30] (1330 words) |
 | Akwesasne Territory, or St. Regis Mohawk Reservation, is a highly embattled Indian community, with a governance system of crisscrossed jurisdictions and a long history of internal political strife. |
| The Akwesasne Mohawks, as represented by the St. Regis Mohawk Tribal government, are in line for one of the Catskills casinos, a very promising site that could rival the Pequot and Mohegan casinos in Connecticut. |
| The coming shakedown of local and state governments due to a stagnated national economy, plus the impending serious cutbacks in federal subsidies to health and education give all tribes pause as to their security of place and potentials. |
