S2 | Ep. 004 | Skelotses
Skelotses is our ancestral territory, it is our homeland. In the final part of our series with the Lummi Summer Youth Program we travel by boat through our homeland, the San Juan Islands; we are reminded how culture and community are used as preventative tools for positive youth mental health. We listen to youth tell us what they learned, and elders explain origin stories as well as more recent tribal history since the Point Elliot Treaty. It was a beautiful day full of whale watching, rich storytelling and togetherness traveling the traditional highways our ancestors once took. Join us as we embark on the final leg of the ‘Walking With Our Ancestors’ journey.
