Leonard Forsman is the Chairman of the Suquamish Tribe and President of the Affiliated Tribes of Northwest Indians. In five minutes, Chairman Forsman takes us through hundreds of years of regional history, and the current critical threat to Tribal Treaty rights, including the severe threat of dwindling salmon runs throughout the northwest year after year, affecting livelihoods, ecosystems, and jeopardizing the Tribal treaties to which the United States is legally bound.
