Longhouse Art Gallery Show--My Journey with “TAWKW-shuh-blue”: Driving Vi 700,650 miles...
by Paul Eubanks.
“TAWKW-shuh-blue”, Skagit tribal elder Vi Hilbert (1918-2008), is credited with saving Lushootseed-- the language spoken by Chief Seattle. In a series of legacy albums produced by Paul Eubanks, the cultural future was permanently preserved in the ancestral stories and wisdom of TAWKW-shuh-blue and other tribal elders. It was their wish that the culture be preserved by sharing it – with the goal of making the material available to all who seek it, now and in the future. Paul Eubanks, an adopted grandson of TAWKW-shuh-blue, honors these elders with photos, prints and a series of presentations that illuminate the background stories regarding the production of these legacy albums. Paul was Vi's volunteer driver for 18 years.
