Why this tribe is buying up hundreds of acres of farmland — and flooding it

A new levee built by the #StillaguamishTribe separates farmland from newly restored #wetlands

by John Ryan, May 3, 2026

"Tribal officials say their habitat projects will help people as well as #salmon the next time floodwaters rise.

"With restored #floodplains, more of the #StillaguamishRiver's destructive surges can spread out and dissipate before causing harm.

"The Stillaguamish Tribe built a new levee last year, farther back from the river, before removing the old levee.

" 'By giving the river more space, we are reducing the damage and the expense to society to maintain infrastructure. It's cheaper to maintain if you stay further away,' Griffith says."

Ich schreibe über ein Lieblingsbuch, S.C. Gwynne: „Empire of the Summer Moon, Quanah Parker and the Rise and Fall of the Comanches, the Most Powerful Indian Tribe in American History“.

Washington Post: Trump’s border wall expansion just bulldozed an ancient tribal site. This link goes to an MSN-syndicated article which has no paywall. “In Arizona, construction crews ran heavy machinery through and destroyed a roughly 60-to-70-foot swath of an intaglio, a more than 200-foot-long ground etching that looks like a fish and is thought to be at least 1,000 years old, said Richard […]

"The #artificialIntelligence industry’s #dataCenterBoom is the latest chapter in a long history of #environmentalRacism and resource exploitation in vulnerable Native communities, says Oglala Lakota and Northern Cheyenne activist Krystal Two Bulls, the executive director of Honor the Earth, an #Indigenous -led #environmentalJustice organization that is tracking over 100 proposed data center projects on tribal and rural lands."

I spent yesterday at the very first Northern Plains Indigenous Film Festival. The organizers are well in their way to bringing something very special and sorely needed to our community. It was interesting, humbling, educational and often funny to watch submitted works by local, national and Canadian filmmakers. I learned from stories and voices I had never heard before, from places I have never been before. Quite a few makers and actors traveled to the event, held at the historic #FargoTheatre. Well done, and thanks to all who made it happen. I can't wait for next years' fest.
