Liberty's Fourth of July Echoes in Mohawk Leader's Speech
Elmo Scott Watson recounts the 1701 Albany congress and Mohawk leader Hendrick's stirring plea for unity among colonies. Franklin's plan for a grand council is noted, along with colonial struggles, betrayals, and the vision of a federated future that foreshadowed independence. The piece links Hendrick's call for strength in unity to later American constitutional ideas.
