Abstract | In the early 1900s, the Alaskan Bureau of Education tried to lure the Inupiat away from "corrupting" white mining communities and encourage settlement of new Native communities by erecting schools in areas isolated from white influence. The Inupiat's interest in Western education plus the opportunity to maintain traditional subsistence activities in the new villages caused great numbers to relocate. (SV) |
