Juneau Afternoon

Friday, June 18th: Tlingit father figures. Compassion in Action. Flycatchers, murrelets and warblers.  

by

As we look towards Father’s Day this weekend, time out on this Friday’s Juneau Afternoon for a conversation about fatherhood and Alaska Native culture.

Lyle and Kolene James say fathers played a powerful role in traditional Tlingit culture, in both the family and the community.

Lyle and Kolene James share their favorite memories about their fathers – and what it has taught them about the importance of fatherhood.

 

Also today:

  • Catholic Community Service launches “Compassion in Action Campaign.”
  • Marbled Murrelets, flycatchers and warblers: birds to keep your eye out for this week.
