Shawn Vestal: A fitting name at last, to honor a warrior woman


A Spokane woman warrior. A fighter. A figure of resistance.
Whistalks Way will replace Fort George Wright Drive as the name of the road that runs between North Government Way and the T.J. Meenach Bridge – a naming in honor of Whist-alks, a member of the Spokane Tribe and a figure of defiance to Wright’s brutal campaign against Native people in the Northwest in the 1850s. The naming, supported by the region’s tribes, is intended to honor Whist-alks and by extension all Indigenous women, past and present.
“The Spokane Tribe not only wants to honor our native women from the battlefields of the 1800s – we also want to honor the Spokane tribal women of our families today,” the tribe said in a memo to the City Council. “We honor the female warriors who daily fight to protect and preserve our culture, our lifeways, our families, our lands, our environment, and our Tribe.” ....
