Happy Indigenous Peoples’ Day! Today we encourage you to learn more about our campaign for federal recognition: chinookjustice.org Support #ChinookJustice by signing our petition, writing your legislator and/or donating.

Home - Chinook Justice

Restore federal recognition for the Chinook Indian Nation. Congress has the authority to recognize tribes — and can restore the Chinook’s rightful recognition that was granted 20 years ago.

Indigenous people make up 17% of missing people in Washington but are only 1.6% of the population. WA took an important step in implementing an alert system for #MMIW but we have more to do. We can all help raise awareness about this violence by wearing red today. #whywewearred

Help Snoqualmie Tribe protect the sacred waterfalls “The transformation of that water travels over the lip of the falls, hitting the plunge pool becoming the mist and carrying those prayers to our ancestors and the creator.” crosscut.com/news/2022/01/sn…

The Snoqualmie Tribe asks for support to protect their most sacred site

The tribe says helicopter tours disrupt traditional ceremony and prayer at Snoqualmie Falls.

Normalize booking Native folks for your Native American Heritage Month events 6 months to a year out AND normalize having Native folks come to speak/perform/whatever YEAR ROUND and not just October-November. Geez. This shouldn't have to be said EVERY year.

Wrote this out of deep frustration working in politics. The re-vision has since been to find my body in it so from there I can attend to the ppl & land around me. With such gratitude to the work of Ken Workman & the ppl of the inside, the @Duwamish_Tribe. yalereview.org/article/all-p…

The tribe of Seattle's namesake, Native American leader Chief Sealth, has been disrespected without federal recognition for too long. Time for U.S. government to recognize the Duwamish Tribe. st.news/3coh52M
