UNTANGLING: Protecting water and Indigenous sovereignty with Autumn Harry

As the daughter of Indigenous water rights advocates, Autumn Harry (@numu_wanderer) was able to establish a connection to water and fishing at a very young age. Since then, she’s used her skills and knowledge to educate others on the history of Kooyooe Pa’a, or Pyramid Lake, as the first Numu Woman Flyfishing Guide in the U.S (@kooyooepaa_guides). She’s also led advocacy work and mutual aid efforts for food and land sovereignty to help her community, the Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe, thrive.

Untangling is a three-part Outside Voices mini-series exploring our cultural connections to fishing, created in partnership with our friends at Take Me Fishing.
