Memorial Day tribute
On this day I remember a couple a HAWG FARMERS at the falls
Tommy Thompson was the greatest Chief Alive
Leon Jack died to young. He was living on the streets of Duncan crying to go home to the big river and fish
I remember the love of MOTher in their hearts and actions
The Big River I will choose to remember in her former state of wellness
We are Wy-am
We have payed full price for our convictions
That we BELONG on this earth alive and well
No chance of that
They promised to silence us
And silence d we are
Wy-am was the greatest NATION
A Band of Wild Indians who would never consent

Minnie was a land owner through it all, negotiated her stay here each time. “Chief”Minnie Wesley
She is Chief of my heart
Her amazing grace my matriarch
I am her matriarch
Our truth is not anybody else’s
Truth
We battled and won
I mean negotiated on our own behalf as Individual Indians no Celilo trust fund for us
No fulfillment of the promises
Zero goods and services as promised
No Habeas corpus
We aren’t state
No reservation
Except this land called Celilo
Was reserved for our use arbitrarily
As such othe Columbia River Indians

They never honored us by our place and name Wy-am
We omitted Indians
Truth matters
It’s not what you say,
it is what you can prove
They left me a paper trail
I am honored to be the only individual Indian ,left as having aboriginal title , to say
This is our truth
More to come
