Content DescriptionReturn to Top

This collection consists of video cassettes of experts, politicians, researchers and professors teaching courses, delivering lectures or participating in round table discussions or debates that focus upon Native American history, culture, and governance in the state of Alaska. The majority of video cassettes were recorded at the University of Alaska in Anchorage. The collection was acquired by Michael Jennings, who was the Director of Native American Studies at the University of Alaska from 1997 to 2005. Included in the collection are newspaper clippings related to Native American issues in Alaska from 1997 to 1998, transcripts of audio taped interviews, and biographical information on Dr. Jennings. Sound quality on the vast majority of cassettes is very poor.
