“The World Has Changed, and the Wiyot Changed with It:” “THE WORLD HAS CHANGED, AND THE WIYOT CHANGED WITH IT:” THE SOCIO-POLITICAL PROCESSES AND RATIONALE OF CULTURAL LANDSCAPE DECOLONIZATION ON WIYOT ANCESTRAL LAND By Mark Christopher Adams A Thesis Presented to The Faculty of Humboldt State University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in Social Science: Environment & Community Committee Membership Dr. Leena Dallasheh, Committee Chair Dr. Nicholas Purdue, Committee Member Mr. Kerri Malloy, Committee Member Dr. Mark Baker, Program Graduate Coordinator July 2020 ABSTRACT “THE WORLD HAS CHANGED, AND THE WIYOT CHANGED WITH IT:” THE SOCIO-POLITICAL PROCESSES AND RATIONALE OF CULTURAL LANDSCAPE DECOLONIZATION ON WIYOT ANCESTRAL LAND Mark Christopher Adams This thesis examines recent successful efforts by the Wiyot Tribe in Humboldt County, California to resist and reverse forms of settler-colonial oppression with tangible and unprecedented results. The original inhabitants of Humboldt Bay: the Wiyot, and their allies in the local community, have overcome settler socio-political resistance in three contentious, public disputes to preserve and restore tribal sovereignty over ancestral land and culture. While much has been written about the history of the United States as a settler-colonial project, more research is necessary to understand the processes of grassroots decolonization efforts to alter cultural landscapes. Using a combination of feminist and critical geographic theoretical methodologies, archival research, and qualitative interview methods, this thesis informs gaps in the academic discourse on decolonization, focusing on potential strategies that can be replicated elsewhere. The results of this research recognize a historical, legal, and moral justification for decolonization and an emphasis on reading cultural landscapes as an effective decolonization tool, seeking to analyze the Wiyot’s successes in ways that can illuminate tactical strengths and their potential use in future decolonization struggles. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost, I would like to express my deep gratitude to the Wiyot Tribe of the Table Bluff Rancheria without whose guidance, kindness, and gracious permission, this thesis would not have been possible. The tribe’s wisdom, values, and fortitude in regaining their rightful sovereignty and lands have inspired not only this thesis, they have inspired me as a geographer to focus on Indigenous perspectives within a larger context of improving the lives of all people, globally. Special thanks to Ted Hernandez, Cheryl Seidner, and Jessica Cantrell who have graciously given me hours of their time to ensure the Wiyot Tribe’s voice is paramount in this process. My committee members: Chair Dr. Leena Dallasheh,, Dr. Nicholas Purdue, and Mr. Kerri Malloy deserve the utmost credit for their expertise and my heartfelt thanks for their instruction in theory, methodology, and thesis writing, never letting me deliver anything short of my best work. You have helped and inspired me to transform into a more nuanced, effective, and critical-thinking human being. I must also recognize other key Humboldt State University faculty and staff for their important roles in my academic journey: Dr. Matthew Derrick for opening my eyes to landscapes and how to write like a geographer; Dr. Rain Marshall for introducing me to the injustices committed against Indigenous people in America; Peggy Stewart and Terri Fischer, E&C support staff who have always been there when I needed them. You have my eternal thanks. iii Finally, I cannot thank my partner Angie enough for her love, kindness, wisdom, and patience in this process, which was physically, mentally, and emotionally challenging to say the least. Her advice and comfort, as well as, her Indigenous roots in Humboldt County, helped tremendously to keep myself and my research grounded. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT ........................................................................................................................ ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ............................................................................................... iii TABLE OF CONTENTS .................................................................................................... v LIST OF FIGURES .......................................................................................................... vii LIST OF APPENDICES .................................................................................................. viii INTRODUCTION .............................................................................................................. 1 Case Studies .................................................................................................................. 10 Positionality .................................................................................................................. 12 Chapter 1: METHODS ..................................................................................................... 15 Human Subject Interviews ............................................................................................ 19 Key Theoretical Framework: Landscapes .................................................................... 22 Key Theoretical Framework: Setter Colonialism ......................................................... 26 Chapter 2: SETTLER COLONIALISM IN HUMBOLDT COUNTY ............................. 32 Settler Colonialism Reaches Humboldt ........................................................................ 35 Early Settlement and Violence ..................................................................................... 38 Genocide Begins in Humboldt County ......................................................................... 42 The Indian Island and Eel River Massacres .................................................................. 51 Boarding Schools .......................................................................................................... 56 Legally Erasing Wiyot Land ......................................................................................... 58 Conclusion .................................................................................................................... 59 Chapter 3: RESULTS ....................................................................................................... 62 v Settler Interviews .......................................................................................................... 62 Wiyot Interviews ........................................................................................................... 69 Chapter 4: A DISCUSSION ON DECOLONIZATION PROCESS ................................ 74 Decolonization of Wiyot Land ..................................................................................... 74 Lessons Learned ........................................................................................................... 76 Direct and persistent action ....................................................................................... 77 Indigenous and settler coalitions ............................................................................... 81 A focus on landscapes ............................................................................................... 84 Education and settler support for decolonization ...................................................... 89 CONCLUSION ................................................................................................................. 94 WORKS CITED ............................................................................................................... 97 Interviews Cited* .......................................................................................................... 97 Reference Works Cited ................................................................................................. 97 vi LIST OF FIGURES Figure 1.

  • The Right Thing to Do: Returning Land to the Wiyot Tribe
    THE RIGHT THING TO DO: RETURNING LAND TO THE WIYOT TRIBE by Karen Elizabeth Nelson A Thesis Presented to The Faculty of Humboldt State University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts In Sociology May, 2008 THE RIGHT THING TO DO: RETURNING LAND TO THE WIYOT TRIBE by Karen Elizabeth Nelson Approved by the Master’s Thesis Committee: Jennifer Eichstedt, Committee Chair Date Elizabeth Watson, Committee Member Date Judith Little, Committee Member Date Jennifer Eichstedt, Graduate Coordinator Date Chris Hopper, Interim Dean for Research and Graduate Studies Date ABSTRACT THE RIGHT THING TO DO: RETURNING LAND TO THE WIYOT TRIBE Karen Elizabeth Nelson In 2004, the Eureka City Council legally returned forty acres of Indian Island to the Wiyot tribe. This return occurred one hundred and forty four years after the Indian Island massacre. This research explores the returning of sacred tribal land in the context of collective apologies and reconciliations after generations of Native genocide. The significance of this case study includes a detailed narration of how the land transfer occurred and more importantly why it was labeled “the right thing to do” by Eureka City Council members and staff. This case study was examined with a grounded theory methodology. Using no hypotheses, the research and the research methodology unfolded in a non-linear process, letting the research speak for itself. Detailed interviews and a review of documents were used to qualify and quantify this unique community based social act. The results of this case study include how and why the Eureka City Council returned forty acres of Indian Island to the Wiyot people.

  • 3.6 Cultural Resources, Including Tribal Cultural Resources
    3.6 CULTURAL RESOURCES, INCLUDING TRIBAL CULTURAL RESOURCES This section presents an evaluation of the potential impacts of project implementation on cultural resources. “Cultural resources” is a general term that encompasses CEQA’s historical resource and unique archaeological resource (see Section 3.6.2, “Regulatory Setting,” for definitions of historical resources and unique archaeological resources). Cultural resources may include archaeological traces such as early Native American occupation sites and artifacts, historic-age buildings and structures, and places used for traditional Native American observances or places with special cultural significance. These materials can be found at many locations on the landscape, and along with prehistoric and historic human remains and associated grave-goods, are protected under various state and local statutes. Tribal cultural resources are sites, features, places, cultural landscapes, sacred places, and objects with cultural value to a California Native American tribe. During the public scoping comment period, comments relevant to tribal lands and artifacts, and previous Scotia EIRs that addressed historical resource planning, protection, and the special Scotia Historic Resource Protection zoning provisions were received. These topics are discussed in this section. 3.6.1 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING The information in this section was collected from the following cultural resources technical reports that were prepared for the project applicant.

How to Buy a Continent: The Protocols of Indian Treaties as Developed by Benjamin Franklin and Other Members of the American Philosophical Society Abstract In 1743, when Benjamin Franklin announced the formation of an American Philosophical Society for the Promotion of Useful Knowledge, it was important for the citizens of Pennsylvania to know more about their American Indian neighbors. Beyond a slice of land around Philadelphia, three quarters of the province were still occupied by the Delaware and several other Indian tribes, loosely gathered under the wing of an Indian confederacy known as the Six Nations. Relations with the Six Nations and their allies were being peacefully conducted in a series of so-called “Indian Treaties” that dealt with the fur trade, threats of war with France, settlement of grievances, and the purchase of land.

  • Plants Used in Basketry by the California Indians
    PLANTS USED IN BASKETRY BY THE CALIFORNIA INDIANS BY RUTH EARL MERRILL PLANTS USED IN BASKETRY BY THE CALIFORNIA INDIANS RUTH EARL MERRILL INTRODUCTION In undertaking, as a study in economic botany, a tabulation of all the plants used by the California Indians, I found it advisable to limit myself, for the time being, to a particular form of use of plants. Basketry was chosen on account of the availability of material in the University's Anthropological Museum. Appreciation is due the mem- bers of the departments of Botany and Anthropology for criticism and suggestions, especially to Drs. H. M. Hall and A. L. Kroeber, under whose direction the study was carried out; to Miss Harriet A. Walker of the University Herbarium, and Mr. E. W. Gifford, Asso- ciate Curator of the Museum of Anthropology, without whose interest and cooperation the identification of baskets and basketry materials would have been impossible; and to Dr. H. I. Priestley, of the Ban- croft Library, whose translation of Pedro Fages' Voyages greatly facilitated literary research. Purpose of the sttudy.-There is perhaps no phase of American Indian culture which is better known, at least outside strictly anthro- pological circles, than basketry. Indian baskets are not only concrete, durable, and easily handled, but also beautiful, and may serve a variety of purposes beyond mere ornament in the civilized household. Hence they are to be found in. our homes as well as our museums, and much has been written about the art from both the scientific and the popular standpoints. To these statements, California, where American basketry.
