AngieMy neighbor is indigenous. She has invited me to the local pow wow at Muckleshoot now and again. We went again today, which she said is the start of the season. It has been great going and learning.
Turns out, they're not the Duwamish Tribe. They're not federally recognized, because they're not a tribe with a history of being a real tribe. The government recognizes the #Muckleshoot Tribe as the political successor of the Duwamish Tribe that signed the Treaty of Point Elliot. /2

Writes of Way 🛣🚏🗺🧭“Dzidzilalich” has been proposed as an honorary name for the new Elliott Way in downtown #Seattle, and for Alaskan Way from Elliott Way to S Dearborn Street. I'm glad to see the name return to our waterfront, but couldn't we have done better than "Elliott Way" for the new road? https://www.writesofway.org/dzidzilalich-return-seattle-waterfront-honorary-name-elliott-way-alaskan-way/ #Lushootseed #Duwamish #Suquamish #Muckleshoot #StreetName #StreetNames #NativeNames #NativeAmerican
