In a highlight moment from If An Owl Calls Your Name, Hereditary Chief Na’Moks of the Tsayu Clan, speaking from Wet’suwet’en territory, affirms the unbroken truth of his people’s sovereignty. Dedicated to the preservation and enhancement of First Nations culture, traditions, and territories, Na’Moks reminds us that under Wet’suwet’en law—and affirmed even within colonial courts—Indigenous peoples have free, rightful access to their lands. Lands that were never surrendered, ceded, or negotiated away.
He speaks with unmistakable clarity: extractive industries may arrive with permits, police escorts, and political backing, but none of these override the authority of hereditary governance. None of these erase Indigenous law. None of these grant legitimacy to displacement. Na’Moks names the reality that the Wet’suwet’en are not “protesters” on their own territory—they are sovereign caretakers upholding responsibilities that predate and supersede the colonial state.
In the face of pipelines, injunctions, and militarized enforcement, his words become a declaration: they will not leave. They will not back down. Their relationship to the land is not negotiable, and it is not for sale. It is a sacred responsibility carried through generations.
Na’Moks’ voice is one of law, memory, and unshakable purpose, guiding us into a truth that is as old as the territory itself: authority lives with the land, and those who belong to it.
