Ronald Cross

Ronald Cross is a Mohawk whose Italian heritage led to his being nick-named “Lasagna.” He was active in the Oka crisis, during which his image was seized upon by the media and became a symbol of the confrontation between the Mohawks and the Canadian and Quebec authorities. For Lasagna: The Man Behind the Mask (1994), Ronald Cross has contributed additional information that brings the reader up to date on the situation in the Mohawk community, and on the Mohawks’ relationship with the neighbouring non-native communities in both Canada and the United States. Ronald Cross lives in Kahnawake, Quebec.
