Resilience Circle Digital Stories Share Local Indigenous Voices

Resilience Circle is a collection of digital stories told by Lummi Nation and Nooksack Tribal Members in June 2022 in collaboration with Northwest Indian College and Bellingham Public Library. The videos were created in a workshop facilitated by Connecting Community, to encourage healing through personal storytelling.

We offer a sincere thank you to each of the storytellers for the tremendous gift of sharing their stories with the community. They are a profound contribution that will be shared for generations.

Thank you to all donors, to Library Giving Day 2021, and The Friends of Bellingham Public Library for the generous support of this project to foster greater community understanding.

May you experience the healing that comes from listening deeply.
