Lessons from Indigenous Lifeways and Our Feathered Relatives
In this time of crises — climate change, ecocide, declining biodiversity, social inequity, injustice, and political turmoil — understanding of Indigenous lifeways and values can help us envision and create a better future for all of us. Core values that are common to many Indigenous cultures — relationship, responsibility, reciprocity, and redistribution help us to be good stewards of our communities and ecosystems in sacred kinship with all our relatives. Birds are important guides and can provide us with an understanding of these values. We have much to learn from our feathered relatives. Join the conversation.

Lecciones de los modos de vida Indígenas y de nuestros parientes emplumados
En esta época de crisis (cambio climático, ecocidio, disminución de la biodiversidad, desigualdad social, injusticia y agitación política), comprender los modos de vida y los valores Indígenas puede ayudarnos a imaginar y crear un futuro mejor para todos nosotros. Los valores fundamentales que son comunes a muchas culturas Indígenas (relación, responsabilidad, reciprocidad y redistribución) nos ayudan a ser buenos administradores de nuestras comunidades y ecosistemas en parentesco sagrado con todos nuestros parientes. Las aves son guías importantes y pueden proporcionarnos una comprensión de estos valores. Tenemos mucho que aprender de nuestros parientes emplumados. Únase a la conversación.

Cultural Survival advocates for Indigenous Peoples' rights and supports Indigenous communities’ self-determination, cultures and political resilience since 1972. We envision a future that respects and honors Indigenous Peoples' inherent rights and dynamic cultures, deeply and richly interwoven in lands, languages, spiritual traditions, and artistic expression, rooted in self-determination and self-governance.
