Bethel hosts Alaska Native Exploration of 50 Years of Statehood

December 21st, 2009

The Native Perspective on Alaska turning 50 years old was the topic of a meeting in Bethel recently (Winter 2008). It’s one of several being held around the state sponsored by the First Alaskans Institute. The Institute plans to create a DVD from the meetings in order to share a different view on Alaska’s statehood.
