Southeast Alaska: Close to nature's heart Frey, Kluonie; Havorson, Katie; James, Jasmine; Smith, Matt; Tatro, Devin; Velez, Shannon; Ward, Ioana; Pappas, Peter; Lunda, Angela; Lo, Deborah E. Thank you for your interest in multicultural education in Alaska! This book provides an overview of Southeast Alaska, and includes several diverse lesson plans pertaining to the region. Our content was developed through a project-based study of Multicultural Education and Alaska Studies through the UAS MAT secondary education program. The title is an adaptation of “Keep close to Nature's heart... and break clear away, once in a while, and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean.” - John Muir quoted by Samuel Hall Young in Alaska Days with John Muir (1915) chapter 7

Southwest Alaska: Where the sea breaks its back Bowes, Matt; Clark, Lindsay; Hickel, Ryan; Kakde, Shivani; Popek, Erin; Won, Chris; Pappas, Peter; Lunda, Angie; Lo, Deborah E. The authors have borrowed their title from the title of the book "Where the Sea Breaks Its Back: The Epic Story - Georg Steller and the Russian Exploration of Alaska" by Corey Ford. Mr. Ford's title may have also been borrowed/derived from older Unangax or Sugpiat origins, though the authors were not able to verify this. The following volume is the story of Southwest Alaska. The authors make no claim that the story presented within is comprehensive; though we believe that the following pages contain a breadth of topics that will hopefully entice the curious reader to further explore the rich and sea-fringed world we have introduced. The Aleutian islands, the Pribilof, the Shumagin and much of the Alaska Peninsula are remote (to most readers) even by Alaska standards. Though parts of the Kodiak Archipelago, the south coast of the Kenai Peninsula and Prince William Sound are less remote and more peopled, they are at least as beautiful. It is the ocean that ties these areas, and their disparate, though intermingled cultures, together. Southwest Alaska is a place where one can rarely get far from the sea. We hope within these pages you can hear an echo of long traveling, white waves crashing onto windswept, dark shores of Aleutian beaches. There, the Unangax continue to live between the ocean below and the omnipresent volcano above. We also hope that you will be able to visualize the steep-walled, glacial disgorging fjords that shelter communities of the Sugpiat and the large runs of salmon that still sustain them.
