(Bloody Island)
Xa Bahten (Big Water-Clear Lake)
The
story of the massacre of Native Lake peoples at the fishing camp
located on the ancient village site of Badonnapoti (Old Island
Village), is a story filled with brutalism, revenge, and heroic
struggles for survival.
Once called the "Battle" Of Blood Island, this epic tale of California American depradations in the 19th century, is only now being told by the descendants of the survivors of this Indigenous American holocaust.
This site is dedicated not only to setting the historical record straight, but looks to involve all americans interested in truth and justice in an ongoing attempt to heal the earth and all the peoples still affected by those traumatic events.
