    INUVIALUIT LANGUAGE AND IDENTITY: PERSPECTIVES ON THE SYMBOLIC MEANING OF INUVIALUKTUN IN THE CANADIAN WESTERN ARCTIC by Alexander C. Oehler B.A., University of Northern British Columbia, 2010 THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN INTERDISCIPLINARY STUDIES UNIVERSITY OF NORTHERN BRITISH COLUMBIA July 2012 © Alexander C. Oehler, 2012 Abstract: The revitalization of ancestral languages has been an issue of great concern to Aboriginal communities across North America for several decades. More recently, this concern has also found a voice in educational policy, particularly in regions where Aboriginal land claims have been ratified, and where public schools fall under a mandate to offer curricula that meet the needs of Aboriginal students. This research seeks to explore the cultural significance of Inuvialuktun, a regional Inuit language comprised of three distinct dialects traditionally spoken by the Inuvialuit of the northern Northwest Territories, Canada. More specifically, the research seeks to examine the role of current Inuvialuktun language revitalization efforts in the establishment of Inuvialuit collective and individual identities across several age groups. Tying into the sociolinguistic discourse on ancestral language revitalization in North America, the research seeks to contribute a case study from a region underrepresented in the literature on language and identity. The applied aim of the study is to provide better insight on existing language ideologies and language attitudes subscribed to by current and potential learners of Inuvialuktun in the community of Inuvik, NWT. Data obtained by the study is intended to aid local and territorial language planners in identifying potential obstacles and opportunities regarding language learner motivation.

(2021) The erasure of Kwakwaka'wakw First Nations' rich culture and history has transpired for hundreds of years. This destruction of heritage has caused severe damage to traditional oral storytelling and the history and knowledge interwoven with this ancient practice. Under the guidance of Northwest Coast artist and author David Neel, we worked towards reintroducing this storytelling tradition to contemporary audiences through modern media and digital technologies.

Documentation and research on Kwak’wala began more than a century ago, and efforts to revitalize Kwak’wala have been under way for more than three decades. For Indigenous peoples in colonizing societies, language revitalization is a complex endeavour. Within the fields of language revitalization and Indigenous studies, the practices and policies of colonization have been identified as key factors in Indigenous language decline. This study deepens the understanding of the supports for and barriers to Kwak’wala revitalization. Emphasizing Indigenization as a key aspect of decolonization, the study explored the relationship between Kwak’wala learning and being Indigenous. The study was conducted through a Ḵ̓a̱ngex̱tola framework, an Indigenous methodology based on the metaphor of creating a button blanket, the ceremonial regalia of the Kwaka̱ka̱’wakw. The research has built understanding through the author’s experience as a Kwak’wala learner and the use of various approaches to language learning, including two years with the Master-Apprentice approach. The research employs the researcher’s journals and personal stories, as well as interviews with six individuals who are engaged in Kwak’wala revitalization.

  • Heroes Awards 2008—2009
    HEROES Heroes Awards 2008—2009 The word “Hero” brings to mind a legendary Native warrior, lance lowered, riding fearlessly toward the enemy. Today the “Hero” is no less a warrior, but may be armed only with words, a smile, or even a basket of apples. These special people nourish our communities through their giving spirits, they are our advocates, and they help build our future by acting as models for our young people. The “Heroes” Project was conceived by the late Dr. Alan Allery and developed through the National Resource Center on Native American Aging at the University of North Dakota and the Administration on Aging. The project is a forum to recognize individuals who have impacted the lives of Native elders in local communities throughout the continental United States, Alaska and Hawaii. We are proud to share the stories of 37 extraordinary individuals who are the recipients of the Hero Award. Seven of our Heroes chose not to be recognized individually. They are leaders and followers, tall and short, young and old. Everyone of them saw a need and could not look away. They heeded the voices of their ancestors, drew on their inner strength, and stepped forward to help. Some worked with heads high and banners flying. Others were barely noticed but their impact has been great. We honor them all. Isaac Akootchook is a Hero. He was born in Arey Island, Alaska, and has been a lifelong subsistence hunter, whaler, and fisherman. Schooled in the oral tradition of the Inupiaq culture, language, and life by his parents and self-taught in the ways of western society, he encourages his family to work hard and seek knowledge; keep going to school, keep learning, and go forward.

    Marie Meade at old church and graveyard, Nunapitchuk, Alaska, 1988. © R. Drozda. 180 Alaska Journal of Anthropology Volume 3, Number 1 THREE DECADES OF ESKIMO-ALEUT LINGUISTICS IN ALASKA: 1972 TO 2002 Lawrence D. Kaplan Director, Alaska Native Language Center, University of Alaska Fairbanks, AK 99775. [email protected] Abstract: This paper discusses research in Alaskan Eskimo languages since the founding of the Alaska Anthropological Associa- tion, a period which coincides rather nearly with the founding of the Alaska Native Language Center in 1972 to study, document, cultivate, and teach Alaska Native languages. Bilingual education was also begun in Alaska, ending a period of official neglect of Native languages, which were already largely on the decline. The body of the paper presents highlights of Eskimo-Aleut linguistics in Alaska since the early 1970’s, covering Aleut, Alutiiq, Central Alaskan Yupik, Siberian Yupik, Inupiaq, and Comparative Eskimo. The fruits of research on Alaska Native languages have been collected in the ANLC archive, which houses some 10,000 items in and on Alaska Native languages, including published works, manuscripts, audio and video tape, and periodicals, with materials from related languages outside Alaska as well.

  • A New Perspective on Indigenous Blackfoot Participation in Museums and Heritage Sites in Alberta, Canada Bryony Annette Onciul
    Unsettling Assumptions about Community Engagement: A New Perspective on Indigenous Blackfoot Participation in Museums and Heritage Sites in Alberta, Canada Bryony Annette Onciul International Centre for Cultural and Heritage Studies School of Arts and Cultures Newcastle University Submitted in fulfilment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy September 2011 Abstract In post-colonial nations such as Canada, sharing power and authorship is increasingly used as a strategy by museums to attempt to pluralise, democratise and decolonise relations with, and representations of, Indigenous peoples. While honourable in its intentions, the increasingly ubiquitous practice of community engagement in museums has been under analysed, and its difficulties and complexities understated. This thesis critically analyses engagement in museum and heritage practice and carefully unpicks the nuances of, and naturalised assumptions about, collaboration and self-representation. Power relations and their tangible manifestations in the form of exhibits, employment, relations, and new curatorial practices, are at the core of the analysis. As a comparative study the research provides a cross-disciplinary analysis of mainstream and community museums and heritage sites through four case-studies. Each of the case-studies engaged with Indigenous Blackfoot communities in southern Alberta, Canada, through consultation, partnership, co-ownership or community control. Between 2006 and 2009 I spent twenty-four months in Alberta researching the case- studies and conducting forty-eight in-depth interviews with museum and community members. This research makes a new contribution to the field through its emphasis on community participants’ perspectives; the importance of inter-community collaboration; and its development of the concept of ‘engagement zones’ which builds on James Clifford’s theory of the museum as contact zone.
