Hoy en día en Estados Unidos hay más de quinientas naciones indígenas reconocidas por el Gobierno federal que comprenden casi tres millones de personas, descendientes de los quince millones de nativos que habitaban esas tierras.

Indigenous oral narratives are an important source for, and component of, Coast Salish knowledge systems.

Reed shares this history to inform the path toward an alternative future.
