I will now only use the indigenous peoples' names for mountains in the US, especially for those in our beautiful PNW ranges. Consider doing the same. Here are a few: Tahoma - Rainier Wy'east - Hood Loowit - St Helens Klickitat/Pahto - Adams Kulshan - Baker Dahkobed - Glacier Peak Denali - McKinley

Kendrick Lamar showed more courage in the face of rising American tyranny than we’ve seen from ANY former American leader. If you swore an oath to protect this nation, where are you now? youtube.com/shorts/keNw6...
