Gisele Maria Martin @zazele.bsky.social · 27/02/2025“Naʔaataḥ “ (Listen Up!) doesn’t mean listen with your ears, it is “Observe with your whole being”. Not one eye or even 2, but with your heart, guts AND intuition. ʔiisaak is a law, meaning ‘Observe, appreciate and act accordingly’. Indigenous observing is not limited to using our eyes. 091
Gisele Maria Martin @zazele.bsky.social · 26/02/2025'Sustainability' sounds like a colonial method for keeping nature on life support. Nuu-chah-nulth instead practiced 'Abundability', reciprocity with care for biodiversity and growing the next generations of life. eg: clam gardens have been built and maintained on the coast for over 5000 years 062

Gisele Maria Martin @zazele.bsky.social · 04/02/2025“Rights?…..Responsibilities!” Practicing responsiveness is part of the Nuučaanuł / Nuu-chah-nulth law ʔiisaak: observe, appreciate and act accordingly 1122

Gisele Maria Martin @zazele.bsky.social · 29/01/2025Nuučaanuł ancestors practiced land care, protecting and growing Indigenous biological wealth over thousands of years. We have a responsibility to care for the next generations of future life, including next seasons insects, birds, bears and salmon. “Land Use Plan?….Longterm Land Care Instead!” 2265
Gisele Maria Martin @zazele.bsky.social · 28/01/2025Some english expressions around perceived success are really at odds with long term Indigenous land care. “Pave the Way?…Deactivate the Road!” 1121
Gisele Maria Martin @zazele.bsky.social · 25/01/2025Cultural tourism discussions are happening and while it’s important for our stories songs and existence to be audible, after all the colonial silencing i am not for ‘sharing’, but presenting and orating in defiance! 0150
