Welcome to my page. My nickname is OldManRivers. I am from the village of xwemelch'stn. I am Sḵwxwú7mesh
Most of my knowledge is the Indigenous nations and peoples of the North West Coast. From cultural, social, political, and economics , both historically and, currently. I have interested in alternative-media, expression, art, music, and cultures. I also have many other interest and consider myself a generalist. I am also a traditional singer in my people, and know a far bit about the music of the Sḵwxwú7mesh. I am currently an unschooler. I serve as the President of the Board of Directors of Redwire Native Youth Media Society, a non-profit organization devoted to the uncensored expression of Indigenous youth.
