Gwich'in Dance, Life and Language with Jeffrey John




 Today we have an important guest on the show: Jeffrey John. He is a dancer and hunter from Venetie, Alaska. Jeffrey is one of maybe 400 people in the world who speak Gwich'in as their first language.

We hope Gwich'in people on both sides of the Canada-Alaska border can see this video and get in touch. Let's all get together and dance soon!

Note also my goatee in the intro segment, and my full beard in the interview. Let me know what looks best: goatee, beard, or clean cut!
