This is a brief over-view of just some of Grandfather/ Chief Sealth’s (Chief Seattle’s). life.., a little about the Suquamish and Duwamish Peoples.. and the life lead by many Coast Salish Peoples.., in the brutal wrongs of colonization. ----------------------------- Chief Seattle is a Suquamish and Dkhw’Duw’Absh (Duwamish) Chief. A leading figure among his people. he pursued a path of accommodation to white settlers, forming a personal relationship, with “Doc“ Maynard. The city of Seattle, in the U.S. state of Washington, was named after him.
