Elements: Fire | Anna Merritt

Elements is a series of short films that celebrate The Klamath Tribes’ leadership in environmental and cultural resilience through personal stories of Tribal Members and their connection to fire, water, and air. Through the voices of three Tribal Members—Anna, Charlie, and Shuína—the series explores the experience of working to bring back beneficial fire, protect endangered fish populations, and carry forward cultural traditions. This installment follows cultural burn specialist Anna Merritt as she reflects on fire’s role in her life and the forests she loves. Learn more about The Klamath Tribes at klamathtribes.org.
