The Tlingit language, rich in metaphor and deep in meaning, encodes the history, life ways, stories, and traditions of the Huna Tlingit. Widely spoken into the mid-20th century, the Tlingit language began to fade during a painful era of western acculturation. Language revitalization is critical, today there are fewer than 60 living fluent speakers.

Gunalchéesh, Háw’aa to the kids from the Tlingit Culture, Language and Literacy dance group for performing at our Native American Heritage Month celebration. It was so wonderful to watch the children dressed in their regalia, singing in the Tlingit language. In this video, the kids are singing the Language Warrior's Chant. We’re also grateful to Wooshkindeinda.aat Lily Hope for reading her book “Celebration,” which tells the story of a young girl’s trip to Juneau for the biennial dance festival.

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

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
