The Smenalh Code


There is no abandonment; there is self-discipline.

There is no procrastinating; there is commitment.
There is no assimilating; there is de-colonizing.
There is no prejudice; there is understanding.
There is no ignorance; there is knowledge.
There is no absolute; there is balance.
There is no panic; there is serenity.
There is no fear; there is courage.
There is no uncertainty; there is faith.

- OldManRivers, (I Am A Confident Determined Man Who Gives Breath To The Noble Way As A Humble Emissary)

About me

  • I'm Rivers
  • From the village of Xwemelch'stn, Sḵwxwú7mesh-ulh
  • Dustin Rivers is a writer and community organizers of indigenous origins. He is of two tribes: Sḵwxwú7mesh and 'Namgis. He has a flare for action and contemplative meme's. He offers indigenous polemics, simply because he does not want a myopic political future for his people. Objective number one is to give breath to the noble way; a decolonize pose in life. Life, culture, and the writings of an inspired-youth.
