6. The Unseparated State: the Coast Salish Stories from the Beginning of Time
The Unseparated State: the Coast Salish Stories from the Beginning of Time
Stand hand-in-hand with the Unseen.
In this grand finale of the first season of Fey’s Shadow Salon, we are joined by Paul Chiyokten Wagner, a Coast Salish Native flutist and storyteller. Through the medium of our virtual salon, the ancient wisdom of the Coast Salish people is going to be invoked through story and song. Join the séance to partake in the knowledge handed down since the beginning of time and enter the Unseparated State, where humans, animals, plants, and forms of life more ethereal co-exist in deep connection with each other and in alignment with the Sacred Mother Earth.
Speaker Bio:
Paul Chiyokten Wagner is the founder of Protectors of the Salish Sea, an indigenous-led organization dedicated to protecting and restoring the Salish Sea region through direct action.
