Powerful Voices: A Note from Our Youth

A recommendation from our Young Tribal Leaders: Thunder Song by Sasha taqʷšəblu LaPointe! This explores themes ranging from indigenous identity and stereotypes

to cultural displacement and environmental degradation to understand what our experiences teach us about the power of community, commitment, and conscientious honesty.

 

New CSSP Film Premiering!

CSSP’s new feature length documentary, Scha’nexw Elhtal’nexw Salmon People: Preserving a Way of Life, is premiering at the 2024 Bioneers Conference!

Inspired by the late Chexanexwh Larry Kinley, a Lummi fisherman and tribal leader who worked to protect wild salmon and promote tribal sovereignty, Scha’nexw Elhtal’nexw Salmon People: Preserving a Way of Life follows two Lummi families as they fish sockeye while navigating climate change, wildfire smoke, and a depleting fishery. In these critical times, Larry asks: “Who Are We Without Salmon?” Scha’nexw Elhtal’nexw Salmon People shows the resilience and adaptive nature of the salmon and the people. It is a spiritual reflection on a lifeway centered on respect and gratitude since time immemorial.
