This campaign will bring attention to the emergent and urgent threats of the Trump Administration to indigenous lands, waters, forests, and lifeways in the Pacific Northwest.
The two-week campaign in September of 2025 will hold events in tribal communities, public venues and places of worship in the Pacific Northwest and Northern California. It will make the case for a narrative that accentuates the interrelatedness of Treaty rights and inherent rights, Indigenous ways of knowing nature and environmental justice, healthy rivers and salmon habitat, spiritual and ecological balance, and ancient forests and climate resilience. Ten cedar masks exemplify the spiritual meaning of xaalh: the sacred balance of life will be carved for the campaign and gifted to event hosts.
