Summary:
"In
Principles
of
Tsawalk
, hereditary chief Umeek builds upon his previous book,
Tsawalk
: A Nuu-chah-nulth Worldview, to elaborate an alternative framework for responding to
global
environmental and political crises and to
indigenous
peoples' poverty, dispossession, and displacement in the realms of education and politics. These problems, Umeek argues, stem from an historical and persistent failure to treat all peoples and life forms with respect and accord them constitutional recognition. By contrast, the Nuu-chah-nulth
principles
of recognition, consent, and continuity, embodied in songs, language, and ceremonies, hold the promise of achieving sustainable lifeways in this shared struggle for balance."--From publisher.
