Their talk was titled, “Wabanakis Then and Now.” She said, the support and passion from Maine people in recent years to support its indigenous history and culture has been growing. Bryant detailed her progress and battles on more recent legislation to amend pieces of a 1980 settlement between the state and tribes, some of which has been vetoed by Gov. Janet Mills.
