Holding on to Land
The hands represent each of our elders trying to hold on to their land and the different colour dots indicate each of the clans on their land, including the mountains, the valleys, the waters and our boundaries. The red dots represent the lifeblood of our people that have fought for our rights to live the way they have for thousands of years.
