SEATTLE HISTORY
Seattle’s Forgotten Battle
By David Buerge - March 20, 2021
https://www.postalley.org/2021/03/20/seattles-forgotten-battle/
As Coll Thrush writes in Native Seattle: Histories From The Crossing Over Place,
“Every American city is built on Indian land, but few advertise it like Seattle.”
City residents succeeded in making the Duwamish landless, and, as a legal result, unrecognized by the federal government, even though they were the first signatories to the Treaty of Point Elliott, and their Duwamish Chief, Seattle was the primary native spokesman at the treaty council.
