‘Voices of the River’ reflected in new Confluence journal (Media Coverage)
Author(s): Allison Frost and Dave Miller
Publication: OPB's Think Out Loud
Date: 1/10/2023
Abstract: For 20 years, the Confluence Project has been highlighting the experiences of Indigenous tribes along the Columbia River. Now it’s created a new journal called “Voices of the River.” Editor Lily Hart says in some ways it’s the culmination of the organization itself, reflecting both history and contemporary life with poetry, articles and original art. We talk with Hart and with Emily Washines, a Yakama tribal member who wrote about protecting threatened tribal fishing rights.
