Alaska Inter-Tribal Council : Advocating for Alaska Tribal Governments

AI-TC News Team attended a presentation held by the Bioneers at the Wendy Williamson Auditorium in Anchorage Alaska. The link below is to the 22 minute video that is incredible and difficult to describe in simple text.

This video is a spectacular presentation regarding the impacts of discrimination by Media against Indigenous Tribal Communities. The Tribal Community of Point Hope has suffered greatly as a result of the biased media response to the Traditional Harvest of Caribou.

AI-TC staff have seen first-hand the effects of pollution and bio-accumulation of hazardous toxins. Many hunters have described the sadness of leaving behind an animal that is unfit for consumption.

Anyone who does not believe that the people of Point Hope have an inalienable right to selectively harvest food for their families should be forced to experience true hunger and the desperation that it causes.
