This Past Weekend, Seattle’s Native Community Marched: To commemorate the 46th anniversary of the United Indians of All Tribes Foundation’s opening the Daybreak Star cultural center in Discovery Park. As my colleague Sydney Brownstone points out, “Forty-six years ago, Native activists in Seattle put their bodies on the line to occupy and reclaim Fort Lawton, an army post in Magnolia. On March 8, 1970, Bernie Whitebear, a member of the Colville Confederated Tribes, led convoys of more than 100 activists who used blankets to climb over the fort’s razor wire fences. Military police (MPs), armed troops, and Seattle police met the singing and drumming protesters with violence. (Randy Lewis, one of the takeover veterans, remembers that when children hid under some of the fort’s barracks, MPs threw tear gas grenades into the buildings. The kids threw the tear gas canisters back out, then set fire to the barracks.) Protesters inside the gates were put in the stockade, but an occupation in front of the fort’s gates continued for three weeks. Eventually, the United Indians of All Tribes Foundation negotiated an agreement to create a cultural center at the fort for Seattle’s urban Indians. They called it Daybreak Star.

“This is a time for us to have joy and build victory, that we overcame. This [is a time] to be together like a big family reunion, to come here and share, share our songs, share our stories, teach our grandkids, teach our children, how to advocate one another, said Pamela Nelson, right, of the Colville Confederated Tribes.
