A Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Prairie's Last Stand | Seattle News

A ten-thousand-year-old prairie on Whidbey Island, rare as it is, is hanging by a thread. Volunteers have fought for decades to restore this ancient landscape, saving endangered species and shielding it from developers. But now, budget cuts and a struggling seed-selling business threaten their survival. Within months, they may have to sell the land — and there’s no guarantee the new owners will keep the prairie alive. This isn’t just about flowers — it’s about preserving a living relic of the Pacific Northwest’s past.

Filming History in Seattle’s Chinatown | Seattle News

A powerful new film, “I Am American,” just wrapped shooting across western Washington, bringing intimate, historically grounded storytelling to life through authentic locations tied to Japanese American incarceration history. Directed by Kelsi Umeko, the film draws from her family’s past and the broader Japanese diaspora experience, filming at sites like the Virginia V steamship, a Snohomish County farm, Bothell’s old schoolhouse, and crucially, Seattle’s Chinatown-International District — including the hauntingly preserved Panama Hotel. Rarely seen in film, this location-driven approach highlights the emotional weight of the story and the community’s resilience. Supported by the Northwest Film Forum and aligned with Washington’s growing film industry push, “I Am American” stands as both a cinematic milestone and a vital act of remembrance.

No Charges After Trooper’s Fatal Crash | Seattle News

Prosecutors in Pierce County have dropped charges against two drivers involved in the fatal crash that killed Trooper Tara-Marysa Guting in December, citing insufficient evidence to prove criminal negligence or intent — especially under the dark, rainy conditions that obscured visibility. The first driver struck the trooper after she was thrown into the road following an initial impact; the second driver hit her minutes later, with dashcam footage showing no braking, and the driver later claimed he thought he’d hit a pothole. Medical examiners couldn’t determine which collision caused her death, ruling it an accident. Despite the tragic circumstances — Trooper Guting, 29, was a dedicated WSP officer and military veteran, and the 34th trooper killed in line of duty — prosecutors concluded they couldn’t prove the drivers knew they hit a person. The case underscores the legal and physical challenges of holding drivers accountable in low-visibility crashes.

Reclaiming Two-Spirit Identity and Heritage | Seattle News

Native Two-Spirit folks gathered in Seattle to reclaim their history, celebrate their identities, and build a future rooted in cultural pride. Once honored as healers and mediators in Indigenous communities, they were erased by colonization—forced to hide who they were. Now, with the term “Two-Spirit” as a unifying umbrella, they’re re-emerging with stories of resilience, rejection, and belonging. Personal narratives reveal how this identity finally gave voice to lifelong truths, not as a replacement for tradition but as a vital addition. Artists and storytellers are pushing for representation, ensuring younger generations see themselves reflected. The gathering was less about fixing the past and more about building community—laughter, listening, and support filling the room as they affirm that their spirit, their truth, is alive and thriving.
