No Comments on Local Event: Foodways of the Lenapehocking

A Testimony from Haverford Friends Meeting

Please join Haverford Friends in Supporting

A spiritually lead presentation by our own William Woys Weaver

The Foodways of the Lenapehocking

This Saturday, April 29th , 1PM

(With child centered activities in the forum room)

The Foodways of Lenapehocking: Garden Plants and Food Customs

This Power Point presentation by well-known author Dr. William Woys Weaver will explore the story of The Roughwood Seed Collection and how it acquired what is now considered the largest collection of Eastern Woodland seeds in private hands. Several members of Haverford Meeting, such as the late Indian activist Theodore Hetzel, who was a long-time member, helped to build this priceless cultural archive. A sub-theme of the lecture will be the relationship between Quakers and saving seeds from indigenous people.

Refreshments will be served following the lecture and will include Lenape Psindamocan Bread (parched sweet corn bread) containing dried cranberries in reference to an ancient Lenape creation story. In honor of the mutual respect between William Penn and the Lenape peoples, the Psindamocan Bread will be served on a great pewter charger given by William Penn as a wedding gift to Dr. Weaver’s ancestor Benjamin Hickman (1677-1742) and Ann Buffington who were married at Concord Friends Meeting on April 9, 1701. Ann Buffington was the daughter of Richard Buffington (1655-1747), Proprietor of New Jersey and friend of William Penn.

“Our message today is twofold:

First, Quakers against all odds managed to preserve some of this Native American heritage as an unspoken token of respect for William Penn’s message of peace and tolerance.

Secondly, the message of wampum: the mutual love and respect of cultures living side by side. The word for wampum (kekok)translates in the Delaware language: I give this from my heart. This is my bond…

No Comments on Holy Spirit girls varsity eight wins at Flicks in Philly

Most parents will have waged battles with their children over eating fruit and vegetables. But instead of sitting and watching a little one push their plate away or refuse to touch a food they don’t like, researchers have now reported that the key to getting kids to eat “significantly” more is getting them to stay at the dining table for longer.

The Holy Spirit High School girls varsity eight won Sunday at the fifth and final Manny Flick-Horvat Series regatta of the season in Philadelphia.

The girls varsity-eight category had two races, and the Spartans finished in 5 minutes, 13.92 seconds in race A, the fastest time of the division. Radnor was second in the race in 5:18.28, Gwynedd Mercy Academy finished third in 5:19.67 and Atlantic City fourth in 5:27.80.

Pennsbury Manor Evokes Native American History with nkwiluntàmën Exhibit

No Comments on Pennsbury Manor Evokes Native American History with nkwiluntàmën Exhibit

The artist used the natural landscape for his installation.

A historic manor in Bucks County is hosting an artistic exhibit that celebrates the rich history of the area and its first inhabitants. Peter Crimmins wrote about the exhibit for WHYY.

Pennsbury Manor, William Penn’s historic estate in Morrisville, has commissioned artist and Lenape descendant Nathan Young for an exhibit that evokes Lenni Lenape history. The exhibit is called “nkwiluntàmën: I long for it; I am lonesome for it (such as the sound of a drum).”

Young has installed noise and avant-garde music at the historic house, which is administered by the Pennsylvania Historic and Museum Commission. This aids in reflecting the noisy history of the Lenape people.

“This is my own personal opinion, but a lot of land acknowledgments seem to be just lip service,” said Young. “But here at Pennsbury Manor, by letting me do things like this and other things that Pennsbury has done for the recognized Delaware tribes – what they do matters. It’s not just lip service.”

The artist has installed several speakers on high-backed garden benches around the residence. Each of these plays music created by several composers for the piece. In addition many large signs are painted white, black, yellow, and red. The goal is to help guide visitors on a poetic journey.
