Description: 

The following text is a transcription of this video.
"In the 30s, maybe the 40s, we had our first Cowlitz attorney. That understanding of being able to use the white man's tools in such a way that benefited us. That was another gift we think the Creator brought us. Take whatever we have around us and use it in such a ways to continue the power of the Cowlitz. The Cowlitz spirit."
