To them, however, the dispute between the colonists and England was peripheral (边缘的). For American Indians the conflict was a war for American Indian independence, and whichever side they chose they lost it. Mary Brant was a powerful influence among the Iroquois. She was a Mohawk, the leader of the society of all Iroquois matrons, and the widow of Sir William Johnson, Superintendent of Indian Affairs. Her brother, Joseph Brant, is the bestknown American Indian warrior of the Revolution, yet she may have exerted even more influence in the Confederacy than he did. She used her influence to keep the western tribes of Iroquois loyal to the English king, George . When the colonists won the war, she and her tribe had to abandon their lands and retreat to Canada. On the other side, Nancy Ward held positions of authority in the Cherokee nation. She had fought as a warrior in the war against the Greeks and as a reward for her heroism was made “Beloved Woman” of the tribe.

The goal of the symposium is to use our collective brainpower to advance management of the sea.It doesnt take a scientist to explain the deep emotional connection many of us feel to the sea. Ask any surfer, beachgoer, fisherman or diver and they will talk about the calm that comes over them out on the water or the hypnotic (催眠的) effect of waves crashing on the shore.We celebrate those connections annually on June 8, World Oceans Day. Its a time to be grateful for all that the ocean provides, from food and jobs to clean air and the adventure of exploration. Its also a time to check marine protection efforts.Around the world, people are paying more attention, and the Blue Mind Symposium is just one of a number of recent conferences that have brought leading thinkers in ocean protection together to share ideas. The 3rd annual Blue Vision Summit explored opportunities for everyday action on ocean protection, and the 2nd International Marine Conservation Congress focused on worldwide advances in adopting marine protected areas.Right now, just over 1% of our oceans are protected. That means many of the important nurseries for ocean wildlife have the risk of being damaged by a variety of pressures, from climate change to habitat destruction.Around the world, there have been major advances in ocean protection, from the 3,800squaremile marine reserve cre
