Near the end of the video, Andra Ebona-Michel is shown wearing the Herring Rock Chilkat Blanket. The Herring Rock is a natural rock formation that the herring used to get trapped in when spawning in Sitka and it shows the right to ownership of the area by them.

This song is the "Raven Peace" dance, composed by a L'ooknaxh.adi man named Kaawus.aa (Dry Bay George).
