The Suquamish people have a message for all of mankind, which is to remind us that by not respecting the Earth, we are not only desecrating what is sacred - without heed to future generations and other species - but also that in our arrogance, we have forgotten our place on Earth. We have an opportunity for a radical shift from the wasteful ways we have adopted and to live in harmony with all life on Earth.
