SEINING TOGETHER STRENGTHENS FAMILY TIES, written by Mary Miller, reflects on the important role that subsistence plays within the family. This article, originally published in the November 1995 edition of Kaniqsiq News, has been adapted for airplay by KNOM.
Once again, Norton Sound Health Corporation’s Native Connections Project Director Sherri Anderson has lent her voice to Miller’s words, following her reading of Miller’s 1995 keynote address “Finding the Path to Healing: Overcoming Childhood Trauma” which premiered on KNOM’s airwaves last month.
KNOM’s Restorative Remarks is a feature program that adapts inspirational messages by Western Alaskans, for Western Alaskans, for radio airplay.
