Mr. Porter has authored various books and pamphlets, all of which teach about Mohawk traditions and spirituality. He is the spokesman and chief spiritual leader of the Mohawk community of Kanatsiohareke in Fonda, NY. Akwesasne is his home community. Because he recognized that Mohawk language and culture were slowly vanishing, he assisted in establishing the Akwesasne Freedom School. He is particularly known as a master storyteller, in the best tradition of Haudenosaunee orators.
