DOWNLOAD EBOOKMaking up more than ten percent of Alaska's population, Native Alaskans are the state's largest minority group. Yet most non-Native Alaskans know surprisingly little about the histories and cultures of their indigenous neighbors, or about the important issues they face. This concise book compiles frequently asked questions and provides informative and accessible responses that shed light on some common misconceptions. With responses composed by scholars within the represented communities and reviewed by a panel of experts, this easy-to-read compendium aims to facilitate a deeper exploration and richer discussion of the complex and compelling issues that are part of Alaska Native life today.

Alaska Native Art examines the concept of tradition in the modern world. Alaska Native Art is a volume to treasure, a tribute to the incredible vision of Alaska's artists and to the enduring traditions of all of Alaska's Native peoples.

Education for Indian youth across the nation varies strikingly according to numerous factors such as sources of funding for the schools, location, curriculum, faculty, and cultural differences. In her new introduction, Margaret Connell Szasz brings the book up to date, accounting for the events of the decade 1972-82 and their significance -- Back cover.
