I was glad not only to see so much local Alaskan talent gathered in one place, but also to have the opportunity to connect with many of the artists, ask questions about their unique craft, and learn about the history and culture that inspires them. #2019AFN
#2019AFN included over 170 artisans and craftsmen, including new artists whose skills were passed down from their family and elders, who showcased everything from birch tree bark art and Alaska inspired jewelry to fur accessories and salmon skin baskets.
The Alaska Federation of Natives convention heard remarks by both of Alaska’s U.S. senators and voted on a number or resolutions.
One resolution sparked a contentious debate on climate change.

For 37 years, @NativeFed has hosted Quyana Alaska at their annual convention, showcasing dances in celebration of the rich heritage of their communities. I was glad to be able to witness so many of these incredible dances at this year’s event. #2019AFN
Passed down from generation to generation, traditional dances sustain Alaska Native culture and help preserve their unique history. #2019AFN
“Every community that wants law enforcement should have them.” Feds and state need to play important role in terms of training. “A public safety officer in every village of Alaska is what good government looks like.” @SenDanSullivan #2019afn

Standing ov after Victor Joseph of @TananaChiefs spoke in support of the youth who presented their resolution from the @firstalaskans conference. Said that we are the stewards on the land&debate about outside interests was irrelevant to instating the climate task force. #2019afn

AFN follows order and continues through the resolutions presented by the @firstalaskans Elders & Youth conference after stating that distinguished guests and elected officials have been waiting to speak. #2019afn
Senator Albert Kookesh states that we owe it to the youth and Elders to continue going through the resolutions presented to AFN by the @firstalaskans Elders and Youth conference rather than tabling them until later. #2019afn
