And Knowledge to Keep Us

An Alaskan camp leads a race against time to repatriate and reawaken Sugpiaq culture. More

Every year Sugpiat kids gather for Akhiok Kids Camp to connect with and celebrate knowledge their Ancestors grew for over 7500 years. But a barrier lies between the kids and their Ancestors: 200 years of colonial suppression that reduced their words to whispers. The Camp is part of the race against time to repatriate and reawaken Sugpiaq knowledge and culture.
