The Chinook Indians, like many Indigenous groups in the Pacific Northwest, practiced slavery as part of their social structure. They often captured slaves during warfare or acquired them through trade, primarily from rival tribes. Slaves were typically used for labor, including tasks such as fishing, gathering, and household work. Additionally, some slaves could earn their freedom through various means, including adoption into the tribe or other social arrangements.
