At 69 years young, Lummi nation member Darrell Hillaire from Bellingham, Washington is on a mission: amplify native indigenous storytelling using technology to educate and inspire actions to protect water ecosystems for future generations. At the heart of his work is a desire to impart young people with community and connection to the ancient wisdoms and foster leadership. Through documentary storytelling, outreach events, and public conversations, Hillaire discovered a shared interest among other tribal nations to join in collective efforts to press for change - together they are known as the Salmon People.
