He is a member of the #Hulquminum speaking #Cowichan Tribes. Joe was born in #Koksilah.

Not to be confused with Namgis Nation artist/carver, Joe R. Wilson, born in Alert Bay.

#ThrowbackThursday
Warming up one of the #Indigenous drums that I've been gifted in the recent 10 years. All my other gifted drums prior to past decade were stolen by RCMP colonial terrorists at past protest raids. I only have one #handmade #deerskin #drum left from the three that were gifted to me during the last decade. One was broken by hereditary Namgis Chief Alfred on past wild salmon flotilla & another was stolen from me, by RCMP CIRG, on a past roadside support camp raid near Gitxsan territory.

My friend Beau's latest creation.
A gorgeous #cedar #weaved #hat with a #raven head. Custom made for a #Kwakiutl educator, (from the Raven Clan) in Campbell River.
First photo is of the hat on a worktable.

#RoyalRoadsUniversity recently unveiled its new #Indigenous #MedicineGarden – a project designed to give #students and #community members a chance to learn about #plants that the #Lekwungen speaking peoples have used since time immemorial.

Solara Goldwynn, Royal Roads' farm and #FoodSystems lead, and Kenneth Elliot, #EthnoBotanist and #CowichanElder, chose the garden’s colourful mix of plants, most of which grow naturally in the traditional territories of the Lekwungen-speaking peoples (southern #VancouverIsland and the #SanJuanIslands and #GulfIslands

#SwinomishPeople aka #PeopleOfTheSalmon , make up the federally recognized #tribe comprising the #CoastSalish people who are #descendants of the original tribes that lived in the surrounding areas. Their #culture is centered around saltwater resources, local flora, and fauna.
