Mapping Archives: Mohawk Land Dispossession by Sulpician Priests

Visualize how contractually promised land was taken from the Mohawk of Kanehsatà:ke over the course of 200 years.


This project is a a work in progress and is being deployed currently to allow for user feedback.

This repo is an accompaniment to Léa Denieul-Pinsky's research. Léa is a Ph.D candidate at Concordia University’s Geography, Planning, and Environment Department dedicating her research to to strengthening alliances that engage settler and Indigenous communities around the land-based issues that unite and divide them. For this, she assesses the potential and limits of repatriating state-sanctioned historical materials and repurposing them as “counter-archives”.
