Spirits of our Whaling Ancestors (Capell Family Books) Paperback - 2010
by Cote, Charlotte
From the rear cover
As a member of the Nuu-chah-nulth First Nation, Charlotte Cot offers a valuable perspective on the issues surrounding indigenous whaling, past and present. Whaling served important social, economic, and ritual functions that have been at the core of Makah and Nuuchahnulth societies throughout their histories. Even as Native societies faced disease epidemics and federal policies that undermined their cultures, they remained connected to their traditions. The revival of whaling has implications for the physical, mental, and spiritual health of these Native communities today, Cot asserts. Whaling, she says, "defines who we are as a people."
