Join the Forum! This is the kind of movement any community member could participate, regardless of what they do for living.
WE PAY REAL RENT! Many of you may have read that Northwest Film Forum was giving 2% of our proceeds to the Duwamish Tribe as of May 2021. After crunching the numbers and receiving our full reports, we are happy to say that our rolling start results in a first donation of $260.95 to Duwamish Tribal Services through Real Rent Duwamish
*** WHY GIVE? ***
Because we are located in Seattle, we are on the lands of the Coast Salish people -- specifically, the Duwamish Tribe. Donating is just one actionable step for us to recognize and give back to the natural lands and sovereignty which has been taken away from Native Americans all over the United States. Not from this area? Visit http://nativeland.ca to figure out how you can learn more about the original peoples of your area!
*** HOW CAN YOU HELP?! ***
- Join us as an organization and give 2% of your proceeds too, just like our community partner Brave Sprout Productions is doing!
- Donate via Real Rent Duwamish and help support the tribe through monthly giving, as an individual. Any amount will do and it can automatically be deducted out of your account.
- Sign the petition on https://www.realrentduwamish.org/ to help the tribe get federal recognition -- and hence, access to significant funding sources and rights tribes that are unrecognized do not receive.
- Shop at the Duwamish Longhouse and Cultural Center or visit it when it is open for activities! See more at https://www.duwamishtribe.org/store
- Learn about the history of your area so that you feel empowered to make these decisions!
