Voices

From EchoX’s Voices – Since 1989, tribal communities have held Canoe Journey to heal from intergenerational trauma, reclaim Coast Salish traditions, reduce drug-use, and pass on teachings to future generations. This summer get ready to paddle to Seattle! We give thanks to the Muckleshoot, this year’s host nation.

From EchoX’s Voices – Juneteenth commemorates the end of slavery in the United States. In 2021, Juneteenth was officially recognized as a federal holiday. This year, we put together a collection of Juneteenth pieces centering Black voices to share and amplify existing community voices.

From EchoX’s Voices – June is Pride Month. Throughout the 1970s, Pride celebrations began popping up across the country in the month of June, eventually turning Pride into what it is known for today: colorful parades & rainbow attire in an effort to bring visibility to and celebrate the LGBTQ+ community. As we organize, celebrate, and engage with Pride this month, let’s also acknowledge and remember that many cultures and people around the world have historically accepted all people—regardless of gender or sexual expression or orientation.
