Episode Synopsis

Dive into the history of Seattle's Central Waterfront, uncovering layers of colonial empire building, settler place-making, and Indigenous displacement, and highlighting the significance of Native inclusion in the planning of the new Waterfront Park. As the episode reveals, "Even though it’s changed dramatically over time, repeatedly, you can still see traces and touch points of the past wherever you go on the Waterfront," reminding us that the past is always present in the landscape and that the Oculus is ever watchful.This series is hosted by Dominic Black and Kiku HughesThis episode features guests Coll Thrush, Valerie Segrest, and Jennifer OttAdditional Resources: Alaskan Way Viaduct, Parts 1-4Earthquake registering 6.8 on Richter Scale jolts Seattle and Puget Sound on February 28, 2001.Washington Street Boat LandingSkid Road1959 King 5 Lost Cargo Documentary
