In November 2022, Confluence launched a new publication. Voices of the River journal features articles, stories, poetry and artwork by Native American writers and artists from Northwest Tribes. Confluence and its supporters celebrated the release of the inaugural issue of the journal during a launch party and panel discussion on November 18, 2022 at the Oregon Historical Society in Portland, which is shared here in podcast format. Speakers include Rachel Cushman (Chinook), Chance White Eyes (Oneida), Emily Washinee (Yakama), and Sean Smith (Chinook).
