How long will it take for those of us against war are suddenly Un-American again?

Lingít author Shaankaláx̱t’ Ernestine Hayes said Peratrovich's legacy inspires her, especially as she reads the news today.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

I stumbled upon this post and it made my already insane night even better. Thank you! That was a blast.

tomorrow i am helping to coordinate the Alaska Music Summit in Anchorage. it's the 3rd in three weeks. We're gonna pack this room with musicians, music teachers, bookers, presenters, arts administrators, and more tomorrow, and we're gonna preach solidarity.

ICE stands for… I’ll go first: Insurrectionists Co-opting Evil

I just had to write a social media post for a close friend’s family to share a big loss. When my students say writing is hard, I usually try to convince them otherwise. There are exceptions. Today was one. Sometimes writing IS hard.

Writer Don Rearden has raised thousands of dollars since he launched his campaign. "What matters is community," he said.

"Two Old Women" is an adaptation of Velma Wallis' novel of the same name. Wallis's 1993 book is based on an Athabascan legend and takes place before colonization.

I’m giving away my novel to anyone who will donate to relief efforts, and so grateful for this story from Alaska Public Media. Could you carry this story @npr.org ? We’ve got so many Alaskans in need from Typhoon Halong. 🙏

Alaska writer and artist team up to build a community of support for storm evacuees alaskapublic.org/2025-western...

Just rolled this out and we’ve already raised over a $1K of direct relief funds! Donate any amount and get an exclusive just released novel of mine as an ebook #TyphoonHalong #Alaska

Power is out in a vast portion of Anchorage…

Communities such as Tuntutuliak and Napakiak are working to get homes and infrastructure ready for winter after the destruction caused by ex-Typhoon Halong. www.adn.com/alaska-news/...

This is part of the final installment of a three-part series about the 1918 wreck of the Canadian Steamship Princess Sophia on Vanderbilt Reef. The sinking remains the West Coast’s greatest loss of life in a maritime disaster. www.juneauindependent.com/post/sinking...

I can’t believe this story is about me. David James is such a gift for Alaskan writers. (Nancy Lord, too.) and thank you to Anchorage Daily News for still publishing stories about writers and book reviews.

Ten women were inducted into the Alaska Women's Hall of Fame on Tuesday, including Joaqlin Estus, one of Alaska's first Native journalists, and her great-grandmother.

As evacuations in the aftermath of the Western Alaska storms wind down, organizations are looking toward finding families longer-term housing so they can move out of mass shelters.

It is going to take more than a village to help our Alaskan villages.

Some residents are reportedly unaccounted for or trapped in houses as a major storm brings high water and winds to Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta communities. (Reported by @alaskapublic.org, KYUK, KNBA and KNOM) www.adn.com/alaska-news/...
