DESCRIPTORS Alaska Natives; *Anthropology; Biculturalism; Bilingual Education; *Bilingual Education Programs; *Bilingual Instructional Materials; Cultural Background; *Cultural Education; Cultural Interrelationships; Eskimos; *Material Development; Multicultural Education; *Native Language Instruction; Program Development; Secondary Education; Yupik IDENTIFIERS Alaska (Southwest); *Yupik Eskimos ABSTRACT For the Yupik Eskimos of southwestern Alaska, a primary goal of bilingual-bicultural education is to forge a society that represents the "best of two worlds." While this is an expressed ideal, educational programs have focused on first and second language learning and have not dealt with the relationship between Yupik and non-Yupik cultures or with the concept of culture change. This thesis describes a secondary-level bilingual-bicultural program designed by an anthropologist to address such issues. Background information is provided on Yupik culture and language and on the history of bilingual education in the region. The results of a survey of parent, teacher, student, and administrator opinions of bilingual education are summarized. The collaboration of the ethnographer with Native teachers in the development of instructional materials and methods is discussed. The paper discusses in detail the program projects that guide students to examine personal values in light of Yupik tradition and current social, economic, and political conditions.

  • North Slope Borough Fiscal Year 2020-2021
    NORTH SLOPE BOROUGH FINAL BUDGET DOCUMENT Photo Provided By: Kevin Fisher, Utqiagvik Alaska ORDINANCE 2020-3 FISCAL YEAR 2020-2021 NORTH SLOPE BOROUGH Office of the Mayor P.O. Box 69 UTQIAGVIK, AK 99723 HARRY K. BROWER, JR., MAYOR Members of the North Slope Borough Assembly Utqiagvik, Alaska In accordance with the North Slope Borough municipal charter provisions, I am pleased to present the annual budget document for the fiscal year 2020-2021. This operating budget is balanced as required by law, and projects expenditures to equal estimated operating revenues of $413,861,293. This budget is based on a preliminary forecast of our property tax receipts associated with oil and gas assets of the North Slope Borough. I requested that our departments for the most part, prepare a status quo budget in order to have a balanced budget without reliance from our savings. The foundation of our budget is built on property tax revenues. We continue to be blessed with stable property tax values and expect to receive approximately $387,460,000 in funding for the coming year. This funding is primarily collected from oil and gas properties, but it also includes tax payments from local businesses and homeowners. Our remaining estimated revenue of $26,429,854 is derived from charges for services, investment income and intergovernmental contributions. This year’s budget reflects an increase in revenues of $11,530,474 from the prior year’s original budget. The increase in estimated revenue is primarily due to an increase in the Borough’s population. Recent census data put our population on slope at 17,591, which is approximately a 400 person increase over last year.

Sekaquaptewa, JD, Co-Chair Department of Alaska Native Studies & Rural Development (DANSRD) Abstract In the late 1800’s, the Evangelical Covenant Church established a mission in Ugalaqliq (Unalakleet), a predominantly Inupiaq community along the Norton Sound in Western Alaska. Missionaries were integral in establishing a localized education system under the direction of the General Agent of Education, Sheldon Jackson, in the early 1900’s. By 1915, the community was no longer engaging in ancestral practices such as deliberating, teaching and hosting ceremonies within the qargi. Nor were they uplifting shared history and relationships between villages or expressing gratitude for the bounty of the lands through traditional songs, dances, or celebrations such as theKivgiq Messenger Feast. In my research, I focus on events that occurred in Ugalaqliq around the turn of the 20th century and analyze how those events influenced the formation of the education system and its ongoing impacts on Native peoples and communities today.

  • Classic Thule [Classic Precontact Inuit]
    OUP UNCORRECTED PROOF – FIRSTPROOFS, Fri Apr 22 2016, NEWGEN Chapter 35 Classic Thule [Classic Precontact Inuit] Peter Whitridge Introduction The precontact Inuit (“Classic Thule”) lifeworld can readily be carved up into a series of discrete topical areas reflecting such things as the history of research, the chrono- logical unfolding of Inuit history, and the character of particular domains of precon- tact life (material culture, economy, social life, belief systems) that are given both by the nature of the archaeological record and by analytical conventions that have taken shape in the discipline over the past century. This is largely the tack adopted here. It should be remembered, however, that this organization has inherently limited bearing on the universe as Inuit people lived and understood it— which was undoubtedly shot through with more belief and less system than archaeologists would normally be comfortable with. It seems equally possible (although more difficult, and riskier) to attempt to enter into this world in substantially different ways— from the perspective, for example, of Inuit cosmologies that understand the relationships between people and between peo- ple and nonhuman creatures in fashions that Western archaeology typically disallows (Wenzel 1991), or from the perspective of women or children or ritualists rather than that of adult male hunters and household heads. While the nonarchaeological and the perspectival are perhaps necessarily suspended here, they stand as silent witnesses and challenges to the accounts we provide of the lives of people in the past. Before proceeding further, a note on terminology is in order. “Thule” has been used to refer to a precontact culture in the North American Arctic since Therkel Mathiassen (1927) first employed the term, in recognition of the Fifth Thule Expedition that -pro vided the logistical umbrella for his pioneering research.

Ames David Banis Portland State University 2017 © 2017 Justin Andrew Junge Abstract Archaeologists have been interested in relationship between environmental variability and cultural change for the last six decades. By understanding how, when, and why humans adapt to environmental change, archaeologists and anthropologists can better understand the development and complexity of human cultures. In northwest Alaska, archaeologists hypothesize that environmental variability was a major factor in both growing coastal population density, with large aggregated villages and large houses, between 1000 and 500 years ago (ya), and subsequent decreasing population density between 500 ya and the contact era.

  • “Journeying North: Reflections on Inuit Stories As Law”
    “Journeying North: Reflections on Inuit Stories as Law” Lori Groft and Rebecca Johnson INTRODUCTION In the summer of 2012, Val Napoleon and Hadley Friedland ran an intensive Indigenous Law Research Unit (ILRU) at the University of Victoria Faculty of Law. The ILRU was part of a special national collaborative research project, “Accessing Justice and Reconciliation”, involving the University of Victoria Faculty of Law, the Indigenous Bar Association and the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada, and funded by the Ontario Law Foundation. Its mandate was to partner with communities in order to rigorously and critically investigate research questions pertaining to Indigenous legal orders.1 As Brunee and Toope note, it is through ongoing engagement that law itself is constituted and maintained.2 Canada has had a long history of failing to acknowledge let alone engage with Indigenous legal orders. Indeed, there is a long history of denying that Indigenous communities have legal orders, or arguing that those orders have been extinguished.3 The partnership was thus part of a larger project of decolonization, one that acknowledges the ways that Canada’s complicated history of colonialism has often rendered invisible Indigenous legal traditions. In its work, the ILRU has taken up the recommendations of the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples that what is required is a renewal of the relationship between Indigenous and non- Indigenous peoples, one guided by the principles of recognition, respect, sharing and responsibility.4 Here, that goal is to put the Canadian legal system into a more sustained and productive engagement with a number of Indigenous legal orders.
