A conversation between Richard Jackson and Lauren Kilroy-Ewbank
Gunalchéesh (thank you) to Richard Jackson, clan leader of the Taantʼa kwáan Teikwedí Tlingit, for permitting us to share his clanʼs story.
Gunalchéesh, Cheif Johnson, your story has made my day.
The First Peoples of the Alaska area are some of the most CREATIVE souls…..I loved teaching high school PNW Natives….with ovoids and u-form shapes….add some color history and my students replicated bentwood boxes…..button blankets…..and of course the story poles…..Ketchikan is a wonderful city with only forty miles of road when I visited…..with one of the finest Longhouse Villages and Totem Pole areas which You have shared in a previous video I believe……just hold on to your hat as You land at their airport on an island falling gently with mountains alllllll around…..breathtaking and not to be missed…..retired now oh how I wish I could have shared your excellent videos for art history…..keep on keeping on….
Just fabulous!!! 👏👏👏👏
Fabulous
I wonder what “slaves” means here.
It’s a loaded word but can mean sort of different things when used as a translated word from different cultures.
Also, the pole/story are beautiful.
I heard the legend/tale a little bit different. Raven man/ salmon woman...

I loved hearing Richard pronounce the name of his towns - people usually skip that part.
Did someone say food (and dancing, I guess) all day? 👀 I wanna get invited to a ku.éex', lol.
Until then, it was amazing to sit here and enjoy my dinner while hearing a riveting tale about Fog Woman, Raven, and their slave. Such drama! Such plot twists! Such meaningful morals and lessons to be learned! 10/10 IMDB rating, tbh. 😂❤
