Introduction
This chapter contains the very famous speech which was made by Chief Seattle, the Native American tribal leader in response to a land treaty which was proposed to him by the Governor of Washington Territory (who was sent by the President) in 1854.
Background
Chief Seattle (1786-1866) was a famous 19th century American Indian chief of the Duwamish and the Suquamish Tribe. He is also known as Sealth, Seathle, Seathl, or See-ahth. He was a prominent leader of his times. His father was from the Suquamish tribe and his mother was from the Duwamish tribe. The city Seattle (found in the state of Washington, USA) is named after him.
In his youth, Sealth made his mark as a warrior, orator and diplomat. He is much respected for his Native American wisdom and his efforts towards maintaining the ecological balance of the ancestral lands that came under his tribes’ ownership. He is famous for his speech that talked about being responsible towards the environment and respect for the land rights of his people. The speech is a powerful statement on the environment, culture, and the future of humanity.
