Duwamish Tribe

The Duwamish Tribe is a Native American people from the Pacific Northwest, specifically around the Seattle area in Washington State. They have a long history rooted in the region, traditionally relying on fishing, hunting, and gathering. Today, they are recognized as a sovereign tribal nation with a government that advocates for their rights, culture, and traditions. While not federally recognized, they have achieved state recognition and are working to preserve their heritage, reconnect with their ancestral lands, and raise awareness about their history and sovereignty.
