Elders and Youth: The pandemic has not stopped Alaska Native people from celebrating their cultures, languages and ways of life. Elders and youth from across Alaska did just that, in a COVID-19 safe way this fall. They spent a few days together virtually at the 2021 First Alaskans Institute’s Elders and Youth Conference. After nearly two years of dealing with pandemic life, the time was used to connect. And, the U.S. government has finally acknowledged the dark history of Indian boarding school. A federal initiative has begun, which is investigating boarding schools. An Alaska Native boarding school survivor shares his personal story advocating for truth and healing.

Leaders in Policy, Music, and Culture: Leaders from across Alaska work year-round on a number of key issues to Alaska Native people, from health care, education, justice to climate change. Many meetings, conferences and in-person gatherings continue to be held online due to COVID-19 safety precautions. Many leaders are taking part in the statewide virtual 2021 Alaska Federation of Natives Annual Convention.
Tribal leaders also advocated for their people at the first White House tribal nation’s virtual summit hosted by President Biden and his cabinet. In music and culture news, an Alaska Native model shares her thoughts about breaking into the international fashion world and an Alaska Native performing artist talks about his first solo album.

She also brought a new perspective on the work, as she herself was born on the Yankton Sioux Reservation and was part of a traditional Dakota Sioux family.

Dame Whina Cooper (1895 – 1994) was a respected kuia (Māori elder), who worked for many years for the rights of her people, and particularly to improve the lot of Māori women. In one famous example, as an 80-year old she led 5,000 Māori land protest marchers as they walked from Te Hāpua (in the far north) to Parliament. Her wide influence and nationally recognized activity led her to be acknowledged with awards in both the British (Imperial) and New Zealand Royal Honours Systems, and by her own people, who bestowed the title Te Whaea o te Motu (“Mother of the Nation”) upon her.
