our people
If you really know Yup'ik people, you understand our need to share with and care for one another. You understand that subsistence, although doesn't gain us monetary profits, gains us mental and physical wellness. Wealth in our villages goes far beyond bank accounts and dives deep into our full freezers and the generosity of our family. Our Way of Life, is a way of living that encompasses happiness that is only achievable through generosity and integrity. The greed that Pebble Mine offers is what our elders have told us will destroy our relationships with each other and our environment. If we feed our land and water toxic mining waste, that is what we will be eating too. #SaveBristolBay
