The inaugural Eenda-Lunaapeewahkiing Indigenous Culture Fair showcased Lenape history and culture, emphasizing community and the importance of reclaiming spaces displaced by colonization.
George Stonefish highlighted the disbanded nature of Lenape communities, stating, "We're spread all around and that's part of the problem," emphasizing the need for collective identity and recognition.
The event, part of the ReImagine Lefferts initiative, reflects ongoing efforts to address land dispossession and the legacy of colonization in Prospect Park.
The fair aimed to bring educational performances and Native-made goods back to Lenapehoking, marking a significant cultural reclamation for the Lenape communities.
