Come spend an evening listening to wisdom and stories with Indigenous activists Sul ka dub Phreddie Lane, of the Lummi Nation, Esther Yazzie-Lewis of the Navajo Nation, and Lithia Booi, of South Africa. 

Subjects will include protecting Mother Earth; the Gathering of the Eagles (Esqalph etse Kwelengsen), the annual intergenerational canoe journey, May 19-27th, which follows the ancestral highways of the Coast Salish peoples through the San Juan Islands (organized by Phreddie Lane) and; in honor of Pride month, Phreddie will speak to the experience of being two-spirited. 

The event begins with a potluck at 5:00 p.m. The presentation, with a question and answer period to follow, will start around 6:30. Join us when you can. You are encouraged to bring food, but, most importantly, we want you to come meet our guests and share this special evening with us.
