Description

As Alaska’s Native peoples confront up to date challenges, they increasingly more find strength within the traditional values and practices that have sustained their cultures for millennia. In stirring words, What the Elders Have Taught Us can pay tribute to the first Alaskans and the ancient values they believe paramount. Ten essayists, one from each and every of Alaska’s diverse Native cultures, were asked to write about a specific value that may be common to all, lessons which were a part of their oral teachings for countless generations. The resulting essays are infused with personal reflection in addition to profound truths. Featuring Roy Corral’s outstanding photography, What the Elders Have Taught Us offers rare insight into the lives of Alaska’s First People—at work and play, in celebration and sorrow—living out the legacy handed down by the elders.
