The Onondaga Nation and several community and academic groups are re-instating a series of talks and discussions aimed at presenting the Native American view on land claims, treaties, water pollution and more. Professor Jack Manno, from SUNY ESF, says the series is called 'Our Common Future II' and provides a cultural and historical perspective from the Onondaga Nation, as well as a look at current topics from their perspective. The evening programs are mostly at Syracuse Stage; all are free and are followed by a reception and small group discussions. For more information: www.peacecouncil.net/noon
