“We are Tlingit, we are Haida, we are Tsimshian. We are Alaska Native people.” – Aanwoogex’ Ethel Lund On the first day of Native American Heritage Month, we reflect on the words of Aanwoogex’ in a Tlingit & Haida video from 2005. It's been nearly three years since she walked into the forest, and we want to take this moment to honor the guiding values and traditions that shape leaders like Ethel Lund.

Tlingit & Haida was proud to partner with the Craig Tribal Association for a culture camp where staff from our Traditional Food Security and Cultural Heritage & Education departments helped out. Kids learned how to make drums and moccasins, fillet fish and process seaweed, carve halibut hooks and make cedar roses and headbands. We love to see youth learning about their culture so they can carry on traditional ways for the next generation! The song in the video is "Just a Happy Song," composed by

Tlingit people have sustainably harvested our traditional foods for millennia. Salmon are integral to the survival of our way of life, so much so that each of the five Pacific salmon species are owned by different Tlingit clans and represented with their crests. Kichx̱áan (Ketchikan) is world renowned for its fishing. There, archeological evidence of fish traps and weirs radiocarbon date to over 3,000 years ago. Using complex methods of drying, smoking and storing in seal oil, salmon were gather

The Tlingit are one of the great Indigenous nations of the Pacific Northwest—rooted for thousands of years along the coastlines, islands, and forests of what is now Southeast Alaska and parts of the Yukon. We are a maritime people, master navigators of the cold Pacific waters, salmon nations, and cedar forests. Our clans—Raven and Eagle/Wolf—carry ancestral laws, histories, and identities passed down through oral tradition, regalia, and monumental art. Our totem poles are not decorations; they a

The Tlingit: episode 10 - Copper. On the Northwest Coast, the ultimate flex wasn’t gold or silver—it was copper. Tlingit clans owned large copper shields, each with a name, history, and value that grew every time it changed hands in trade or ceremony. Some became so prized they were said to be worth the lives of slaves. Coppers weren’t currency you could melt down. They were symbols of wealth, power, and law. To break a copper in public was a dramatic act—it said, “We are so rich we can destroy

The Tlingit: Episode 4-Tlingit canoes weren’t just small river boats—they were ocean war machines carved from single red cedar logs. Some stretched over sixty feet long, with flared sides and high prows that let them slice through waves in open water. They could carry forty warriors, weapons, and supplies, and still move fast enough to outrun colonial ships. These canoes were more than transportation. They were power on display. Fleets of dark canoes moving silently across the water sent a clear

The Tlingit: episode 8 - Diseases. Smallpox hit the Tlingit harder than any war. Epidemics in the 1830s and 1860s wiped out entire villages—some clans lost so many people they couldn’t even fill their houses. In 1836, Sitka saw vaccines through Ivan Veniaminov, but most Native communities were left unprotected. Thousands died while colonizers quarantined themselves. Yet the Tlingit rebuilt, held potlatches to honor the dead, and carried forward names, songs, and stories. Survival itself became t
