This is one of many articles covering the 2016 Totem Pole Journey; it's even making mainstream news! The totem pole, carved by master carver Jewell Praying Wolf James of the House of Tears carvers, is the 4th totem pole to make the journey to First Nations communities on the front lines in the fossil fuel exports war.
The Totem Pole Journeys unify First Nations, faith groups, environmental groups, and community leaders to stand as one, educate people to the dangers, and to stop fossil fuel extraction and export from decimating our lands, waters, and hurting all sentient beings on the planet. The approach is spiritual.
This year's journey changed course so that the Lummi Nation can support the Standing Rock Sioux Nation in their pipeline fight. To follow the journey and read many beautiful and inspiring blogs, visit:
