"Ancestral Waters is a story of the Puyallup Tribes fight for their treaty, their water and their way of life. For 164 years, since the signing of the Medicine Creek Treaty, they have had to fight for the guarantees implicit in that treaty. We have stood at the side of tribal members fighting a Liquefied Natural Gas plant that violates that treaty. Ancestral Waters is their story.” Native Daily Network
Native Daily Network’s Ancestral Waters raises the powerful voices of the Puyallup People telling the story in live time. We feel power grow with each song, each prayer, each 'No means No', each teaching of the sacred relationship and responsibility the people have for caring for the land and water. Ancestral Waters breaks down 160 years of crimes against the people, the land, and the water. It shreds the “LNG bridge fuel” fantasy with data and LNG catastrophes from around the world, so all can see PSE's LNG facility for what it really is - a bomb. A wake up call. A call to action. We must stand together for Life, Water, our lovely Earth, and each other!
