What can the stars teach us about who we are?
For Oneida knowledge keeper Samantha Doxtator, the answer begins with Haudenosaunee teachings that have connected people to the sky for generations. Through her work in Indigenous astronomy, Samantha shares how constellations, moon cycles, and celestial movements continue to guide ceremonies, planting practices, and everyday life.
Using a portable planetarium, she brings the night sky to communities, schools, and events, creating an immersive experience that allows audiences to travel through the universe while exploring Haudenosaunee knowledge and stories. Her presentations blend traditional teachings with modern technology, helping people of all ages see the stars through a new lens.
Inspired by research gathered by her late sister, Sasha Doxtator, Samantha continues to share and grow this knowledge, reminding us that Indigenous peoples have always been astronomers, scientists, and observers of the natural world.
From the North Star to distant galaxies, Samantha's work invites us all to look up, reconnect, and discover the stories written across the sky.
