Description
A series begun on the shores of New Jersey in October 2011 called Project 1776. Traveling up through New York City down to Washington DC back to Spuyten Duyvil on the shores of the Hudson River. George and his Lenape Counterparts reveal ancient stories long forgotten on these nearby sacred lands.
Layers of histories over thousands of years, taking their cue from the Serpent Mound, the original 1776. America's own Revolutionary War has layers upon layers of seeming coincidence, as if a universal magnet pulled each layer of history to these places multiple times.
Each step we take, each walk of road chosen randomly, specifically, all reveals a mystery foretold from most ancient sources to the present day. What we see is not what is and that is the beauty of this lovely thing we call life.
