Kudos to the town of Laurel for having the tenacity and foresight to honor the First People of the land on which it stands. May the knowledge enrich the lives of the next 7 generations and beyond.
Thank you Sterling and Ragghi for sharing yourselves and your culture to help make this happen.
The Nanticoke Museum is a Delaware treasure!
Went to the museum this year and met Sterling. What a great story! I learned so much about the tribe.
Sterling Street is my first cousin; my mother, Evelyn Street Gardner's nephew.
I'm extremely proud of him and his tireless work as our family's history, as well as other family members.
In giving honor to my Great Grandmother Johnson, Grandmother, and Father Julius I look forward to returning to Delaware and attending the upcoming events.
That’s my brother! Am proud of him, and pleased that the townspeople of Laurel are interested in and willing to honor the land and culture where our tribal members continue to inhabit and thrive.
Thank you!
