Excellent journalism highlighting how the State of Alaska is failing rural—and predominantly Alaska Native—students. “over the past 25 years, state officials have largely ignored hundreds of requests by rural school districts to fix the problems that have left public schools across AK crumbling”

I learned a ton from @hollyguise.bsky.social ‘s excellent Alaska Native Resilience. Highly recommend. 🗃️

“An informal Facebook poll in March about NANA's ICE contracts drew responses from around 100 shareholders, the majority of whom disapproved of the work.” Many Alaska Natives oppose ICE contracts conflicting with what the Alaska Native Corporations are doing alaskapublic.org/news/politic...

I’m gonna share some joyous news- my Grandma Betty, from Unalakleet, turned 99 years old. My mom & aunts had a party for her in Anchorage

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/...

From accounts with relatives from Kipnuk, the village is a total loss. One of my Elder relatives says it's wiped out. Those rectangular dots in the distance? Houses floating away
