Chief Oren Lyons's profile photo

Chief Oren Lyons

Chief and Onondaga Faithkeeper

Onondaga Faithkeeper, legendary athlete, and a global voice for the Earth. For over ninety winters, he has bridged the gap between ancient Haudenosaunee wisdom and modern survival, from the fields of Syracuse to the halls of the United Nations. Oren Lyons reminds us that we aren\'t just living on the land; we are the land itself. Through the Seventh Generation philosophy, he teaches us to protect our seeds and soil as a sacred trust for those yet to be born. It is time to stop negotiating with nature and start listening to the truth of the Earth. Join us in honoring a leader who continues to fight for Indigenous sovereignty and our collective future.
