    Tlingit Culture

    4. oktober 2023, Forente stater ⋅ ☁️ 39 °F

    A Tlingit (pronounced “klingit”) man gave a presentation about Native American culture here in the north.

    I was surprised to learn that Tlingit speakers were also used as code talkers during WWII. It wasn’t just Navajo speakers.

    Of course, the sad irony is that these same men had been punished for speaking their native tongue while growing up. For many years, Tlingit language and culture was suppressed.

    I was happy to hear that Tlingit language and culture is making a comeback.

    The totem poles along Juneau’s pier are part of this heritage.
