The Indians of the Medicine Creek Treaty, their Coast Salish neighbors and all Indians living in our region experience respect, honor and support for their way of life.
We walk a path of learning and living to address the historic marginalization and ongoing inequities experienced by our Coast Salish neighbors, and we share the responsibility to care for this place, their homelands, where we mutually abide.
Following and supporting the sovereignty rights of original, free and independant Nations and Peoples takes time and a willingness to question our own perceptions - sometimes born of an upbringing in the colonial practices of these United States. We respectfully listen and learn directly from Native voices by visiting their regional and national sources, and from area Tribes.
You are invited to join us in our continuing search for expressions of right relationships with the original people of the Salish Sea, and to cultivate the fruit of these relationships in action and solidarity.
Learning Right Relations is a series of seasonal gatherings, auxiliary meetings and visits to Tribal sites aimed at addressing the historic marginalization and ongoing inequities faced by our Coast Salish neighbors. Learning Right Relations has become an action group that meets monthly and is involved year-round in activities that support the following vision and statement of purpose.
