Benefit Concert featuring Joanne Shenandoah Below is the press release for a benefit show that we hope will raise the money needed to pay for the legal costs of Traditonal Oneida people. The donations are collected by Round Dance Production's, a 501c tax exempt foundation set up by Joanne and Doug. If we can sell the house out, we can cover all the legal costs compiled over the years by the Oneidas for Democracy.
