Short Description of Activity
Barb Muirhead, Jody Louise, and I participated in this culminating event of the “All My Relations” series created by the Tribes to advocate for removal of the Lowers Snake River Dams. This event took place in Town Hall, Seattle, and featured a panel of three tribal leaders; Sally Jewel, former Secretary of the Interior; and Ben Jealous, Executive Director of the Sierra Club.

The panel members were passionate and eloquent in their advocacy for breaching the Lower Snake River Dams. It was a truly inspiring and educational event.
