Please join us for A Majestic Matriarchy on Saturday, June 14 from 6:30–8:30pm at St. Joseph Parish (732 18th Ave E, Seattle, WA 98112).
Preceding this event we are also hosting Netse Mot: A Gathering Meal from 5:00-6:30pm (optional to attend). A Majestic Matriarchy is presented by Se’Si’Le, an Indigenous-led nonprofit in Washington State and is supported by a coalition of NGOs and faith-based partners.
This event will focus on Indigenous women to celebrate and bring attention to our Southern Resident orca relatives. Native peoples have a deep affinity with the matriarchal lifeway of our majestic Resident relatives who rely on the older females for stability, especially in times of crisis. A grave crisis is now upon them, their existence is imperiled. Join us to listen, learn, and be inspired by the heartfelt words, visions, and voices of Indigenous women leaders.

- Dr. Jill La Pointe, Upper Skagit Indian Tribe and Nooksack. Senior Director, Indigenous Peoples Institute at Seattle University
