Coast Salish Culture – 70 Min
Lesson 2: The Big Picture: Coast Salish Culture – 70 min. Short Description: By analyzing and comparing maps and photographs from the Renton History Museum’s collection and other sources, students will gain a better understanding of Coast Salish daily life through mini lessons. These activities will include information on both life during the time of first contact with White explorers and settlers and current cultural traditions.

Time: 70 min. Materials: ● Laminated and bound set of Photo Set 2 Warm-Up 15 min.: Ask students to get out a piece of paper and fold it into thirds. 5 min.: In the top third, ask them to write: What do you already know about Native Americans (from the artifacts you looked at in the last lesson)? Give them 5 min to brainstorm. 5 min.: In the middle, ask them to write: What do you still want to know? Give them 5min to brainstorm answers to this. -

Emigh, Chair This study uses narrative analysis to examine how racial, ethnic, and national schemas were mobilized by social actors to categorize Duwamish identity from the eighteenth century to the early twentieth century. In so doing, it evaluates how the classificatory schemas of non- indigenous actors, particularly the state, resembled or diverged from Duwamish self- understandings and the relationship between these classificatory schemes and the configuration of political power in the Puget Sound region of Washington state. The earliest classificatory schema applied to the Duwamish consisted of a racial category “Indian” attached to an ethno- national category of “tribe,” which was honed during the treaty period. After the “Indian wars” of 1855-56, this ethno-national orientation was supplanted by a highly racialized schema aimed at the political exclusion of “Indians”. By the twentieth century, however, formalized racialized exclusion was replaced by a racialized ethno-national schema by which tribal membership was defined using a racial logic of blood purity. -

Seattle Design Commission #2 Brief
SR 520 Montlake to Lake Washington I/C and Bridge Replacement Project SEATTLE DESIGN COMMISSION #2 BRIEF SR 520 Project Background The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) is redeveloping the Seattle segment of the State Route (SR) 520 corridor between I-5 and Lake Washington, known as the “Rest of the West”. The redevelopment will include new bridges that meet current seismic standards, updated roadways with HOV capacity and new pedestrian and bicycle facilities. In addition, the project will include a lid between Montlake Blvd E. and 24th Ave E, as well as a pedestrian and bicycle bridge over SR 520 to the east of the Montlake lid. The Montlake lid will include improved transit connections, open spaces, and enhanced non-motorized connections. Although the entire project is fully funded, funding for design and construction is allocated over several biennia. Construction is occurring in phases: • Phase 1- West Approach Bridge North • Phase 2- West Approach Bridge South and the mainline corridor spanning from Lake Washington to Montlake Blvd. This phase will include the design and construction of the Montlake lid, the Pedestrian Land Bridge, Lake Washington Boulevard and restoration of Foster Island. • Phase 3 - I-5 Express lane connection • Phase 4 - Includes replacement of the Portage Bay Bridge, a new Roanoke lid • Phase 5 – Includes a second bascule bridge over the Montlake Cut. In 2016, The Seattle Design Commission (SDC) provided recommendations to WSDOT on final design concepts related to Phase 2 of the corridor, which will be designed and constructed by a design-build contract. These SDC recommendations along with detailed input from city departments and the public assisted WSDOT in developing the 2018 Request for Proposals (RFP) for construction of Phase 2. -
