In a landscape as dramatic as its stories, Alaska Native people face staggering suicide rates, yet remain determined to heal & thrive!
Historically Alaska Native peoples lived solely from the lands and waters of the far north; it is that relationship between land, water and people that has culturally defined the first peoples of Alaska. Today Alaska Natives face many challenges in a world dominated by differing values. Rapid lifestyle changes, forced assimilation, and historical traumas have led to severed connections to the land and waters; these struggles threaten the loss of traditional values that have sustained Alaska Native Peoples for millennium.

Sometimes we will disagree and on this one I may need perspective as to why.
The Stratfor piece is like a rapist going into great detail to peers as to why the victim was chosen.
We Breathe Again is the victim making a documentary about the rape.
It just hit me wrong and I gander to say it will also hit other Native Americans in the gut too. FYI
From Catherine:
The Stratfor piece is an very good overview of the geographic and geophysical economics strength of the US. Given the view
from global empire, it is refreshingly honest. We need to hear that voice because it is real and it is present – it is counter to the voice
that says the US is going to collapse. It is also a counter to the voice that needs to hear how power and money work, not how we wish them to work. It helps explain why some of the behavior that we have been watching that is mystifying.
The rapist is not, however, the folks at Stratfor or the people they work for. It includes everyone who owns land or a home in the US
subsidized by the fact that the real estate was stolen or who got an education at a school that has an endowment financed with slave trafficking.
That is you and me. Back to the red button story.
This takes us back to the age old war for land and resources and how we reconcile competing interests – especially with 7 billion people.
Evon Peter and his wife are excellent people – the kind of leadership we need to to bring about lasting change.
Right now our only way through is to be committed to the individual rights of each and every human. However that is not a commitment that the American’s have
made — our commitment to date has been to keep the red button from being pushed. Which leaves it to the leadership to bring home the bacon.
