Tulalip Tribes honors missing and murdered Indigenous people
TULALIP —Members of the Tulalip Tribes gathered and marched Tuesday to bring awareness to the number of Native Americans affected by violence, homicide and human trafficking.
Over 100 people came together for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Persons Awareness Day, which has been recognized on May 5 since 2017. First established to bring awareness to violence against Indigenous women and girls, the day now includes Indigenous men and boys.
On Tuesday, family members, friends and tribal members honored those whose lives were lost and who are still missing.
“Today, we’re coming together to give recognition, to send awareness, to send strength, to send prayers, the best way that we can for our family, for our friends,” rally emcee Josh Fryberg said during the event. “We send our continued prayers to all of our family, all of our friends, all of our loved ones.”
