So much packed into this short documentary. It's beautiful, it's wonderful and it's heartbreakingly sad. Thank you Sherman. I love it and will watch it many times.
This is such a powerful and moving film, and I enjoyed the narration, poetry, commentary, and dancers. Forgiveness might come at the end of the world, but it seems overwhelmingly difficult (should I say impossible?) to forgive an act that created such loss--let alone the many, many acts that created loss and tears for so many. Thank you for giving me perspective and sharing this.
I'm sorry but I'm conflicted. I don't believe I have all the unbiased information to form any opinion. how sadly ignorant. I think I have of researching to do.
I am still working on forgiving my European ancestors for what they did to the world, let alone this continent. Or myself, for turning away, too many times. Your words at the end of the film were as always powerful and inspiring. Thank you
If everyone in the Northwest turned off their electricity, the Hoover Dam might fall down. But it would overload the windmills. How would I listen to Sherman?

Thank you, Kathy.
I also really liked the narration!
Goofy rambling me!

Thank you, Kathryn. Yeah, I don’t think I can ever forgive that dam.

I don’t expect agreement with everything I write and I always welcome research.
Thank you for sharing this & "not a lie, a story".
Particularly moved by someone else's words here as well in honoring their grandmother & ancestors: "We're returning home just like the salmon."

Great quote!

The ironies and hypocrisies abound!
Many times I have tried to refine my hypocrisy, but it is a hard word to spell.
Tears are part of the water that unites, right?
Yes, they are.
Emotions ....🥺”till the lost Indian comes home” and “Dancing at the pow wow at the end” .... that too is how I imagine at the end:
Thank you.
Good. No polititions can eat them.
!!!!!!!
I don’t forgive them. Are there still some salmon? I don’t forgive any hateful things in history. It’s still going on.
Our tribes are working hard to reintroduce wild salmon to the Spokane and Columbia Rivers.
I’ll see you at powwow this year!
Love this, we did Salmon Ceremony this year.
I’ll see you at powwow this year!
