The Spokane City Council voted unanimously Monday to change the name of Fort George Wright Drive, a street named for a reviled Indian fighter.
The road will be called Whistalks Way in honor of a female warrior and Spokane Indian who played a role in the resistance against George Wright in 1858.
The Spokane Tribe of Indians vision is to achieve true sovereignty by attaining self-sufficiency. We will preserve and enhance our traditional values by living and teaching the inherent principles of respect, honor and integrity as embodied in our language and life-ways. We will develop strong leadership through education, accountability, experience and positive reinforcement.
