March 17, 2020

In the interest of community health and safety, and also due to the temporary closure of the Suquamish Museum, our planned group trip on Saturday March 28th is cancelled.

We hope you are taking care of and nourishing yourselves at this time. We may be offering some meetings or ways to gather together online, so please watch for future newsletters with more details.

Announcement:
Netse Mot Day postponed
new date TBA
 

Netse Mot for Xq'ullemy 2020 has been postponed from original date of March 21st due to coronavirus. Click here to view website, where announcements will be made about future date.

Netse Mot for Xw'ullemy means "One heart, one mind for the Salish Sea." At Netse Mot 2020, people from all walks of life will gather together to support Indigenous-led efforts to save the Salish Sea.

The Salish Sea is in a state of emergency. The salmon runs are disappearing, qwe'lhol'mechen (the killer whales) are dying, and people are suffering. We wish to impress upon the government and upon the public that we must act now and that we must act together to heal the Salish Sea. We are all connected, we all share one heart and one mind in this regard.

The people who have lived in a reciprocal relationship with this place since time immemorial have the ancestral knowledge of how to best take care of this place. Netse Mot is an inclusive event that underscores the need for Indigenous leadership and ancestral Native teachings.
