The Indigenous Speaker Series provides a platform for dialogues about Indigenous people’s cultural and traditional lived experiences, hosted in partnership by the University of Washington – Tacoma, C.U.R.E (Clean Up the River Environment), Climate Land Leaders, and the Salish Sea Research Center.
Annie Humphrey resides on the Leech Lake Reservation in Northern Minnesota. She is a dressmaker, veteran, grandmother, mother, wife, maple tree tapper, wild rice harvester, a netter of fish, medicine gatherer, carpenter, singer/songwriter, muralist, tattoo artist… Annie lives a life of service to the Earth, her children, grandchildren, searchers and her chickens. As a musician, Annie has earned Native American Music Awards over the years. She travels and performs, builds, remodels, paints and sews to pay the bills. She doesn’t push formal education on her children or grandchildren, she would rather they learn to live without Amazon or Walmart.
