A Native Community Preserves its Food Traditions
Members of the Tolowa Dee-ni’ Nation are keeping #TraditionalFoodways alive in the face of #ClimateChange and human impact.

Excerpt: "Changes in tribal food systems and lifeways began in 1853 as the #CaliforniaGoldRush brought a mass incursion of #WhiteSettlers. Making way for the newcomers and addressing the ' #IndianProblem,' California paid a bounty for Indian scalps, which proved to be more lucrative than panning gold. The first session of the California State Legislature passed the Act for the Government and Protection of Indians in 1850, which legalized removing Natives from their land and separating Native families.
"Ceremonies were ambushed and villages were burned. In 1856, the U.S. government forcibly removed 1,834 #Tolowa to coastal concentration camps. By 1910, like many California tribes, the Tolowa population had dwindled—from more than 10,000 to just 504. Despite the 14th Amendment, the Act for the Government and Protection of Indians was not fully repealed until 1937.
"Relying on the knowledge held by the few families refusing to give up their traditional ways, the Tolowa persevered.
" 'My family managed to hold tight to our food, language, ceremony, songs, beliefs, and protocols,' says Jones. 'We fought to keep connected. We purposefully protected and passed along this way of being so it didn’t die.' "

[This is significant. Ok next!]
"The 73 square miles of forested land is over three times the size of Manhattan, according to Nelson Mathews, president of the Western Rivers Conservancy. The conservancy partnered with the Yurok Tribe for 23 years to return the massive parcel of stolen land, which is now called the Blue Creek Salmon Sanctuary and Yurok Tribal Community Forest and is fully owned and managed by the tribe."

"A penetrating look at the #radioactive desert of the #NavajoNation suffering from the effects of decades of #UraniumMining, Demon Mineral paints a devastating portrait of #bureaucratic inaction and its long- term impact on human life. This fascinating documentary, directed by Hadley Austin and produced by Dr. #TommyRock, #Dine', employs an array of well-sourced scientific data, coupled with archival and on-the-ground footage, to bring into vivid focus the heartbreaking toll of omnipresent #radiation on the #Arizona, #NewMexico, and #Utah Indigenous population. With few avenues available to offset their suffering — compounded by sustained apathy from politicians who might be able to help — a group of #Indigenous scientists, elders, and #activists strive to reclaim Diné #Bikeyah, the sacred land of the Navajo, and gain compensation for their contaminated lands. The illuminating 'Demon Mineral' is an essential vehicle for those directly impacted by this dire situation to draw attention to their plight." — Zaki Hasan

Forgot a brain condiment this morning, bumbled back into Bsky-urbanism-ontario-politics space and
hell, I need to get offline again now and need a shower.
I've concluded the only solution to just about anything plaguing municipalities is to abolish provinces and give the damn #landback. And firewall every system we have that is made of electrons away from the US.
So I guess I'll go write my cute little overdue dystopian fantasy paper for transit system futures.
As a Native Hawaiian, it's beautiful to see our Austronesian indigenous cousins in Madagascar getting free from French colonialism. Gives hope against the US empire here in Hawaii.

Here's a great article about the dozens of Indigenous youth from Klamath River Basin tribes who descended the Klamath River--after more than a hundred years finally no longer pent and dammed--all the way to the sea from the source. The story of the summer around here, as far as I'm concerned.
