Summary
A week after getting done with Tribal Canoe Journey Paddle to Muckleshoot, the YAI team sits down to reflect on our time, our favorite Canoe Journey stories, and, oh, did we mention Free got new tattoos?
Oonugwito (greetings), today’s episode starts a new introduction series for our YAI team members starting with Wykeklyaa Curleybear, a kwinayl (Quinault) Tribal member.
Lummi language teacher, Tina Joe, speaks to Bella about the importance of language, culture, and passing it down to the next generation. We learn more about language as it ties to ceremony, and how it connects us to our ancestors
Welcome back to Young and Indigenous Season 2! We’re super excited to continue through our journey of storytelling and also to introduce two new members to the team.
Join us on the final leg of the ‘Walking With Our Ancestors’ journey as Lummi youth and elders travel through Skelotses, our ancestral homeland in the San Juan Islands, sharing stories, culture, and history while fostering community and mental wellness.
