Leo Ariwite was born and raised in Salmon, Idaho, and is a Northern Shoshoni descended from the band of Sacajawea. His forebears, including Chief Tendoy, were forced to leave Salmon in 1907 and relocate to the Fort Hall Reservation. Ariwite, who continues to live in Central Idaho/Montana, will share stories of his homeland and how this land and its people were impacted by colonization.
