Celilo Falls and the remaking of the Columbia River
Abstract/Description: | Provides an historical overview of the economic and social importance of Celilo Falls of the Columbia River to Native Americans of the Pacific Northwest, and the impacts upon that group that resulted from the erection of the Dalles Dam. Covers the "taming the river" arguments used to justify engineering projects on the Columbia River that were asserted by the U.S. Federal Government and the industrial sector, viz., the needs for provision of hydroelectricity, accommodation of commercial river traffic, and flood control. Features photographs and archival footage of local traditional Native American fishers, footage and audio recordings of contemporary U.S. presidents, and interviews with traditional fishers of the Warm Springs Tribe of today. |
