Smoking Salmon and Preserving Tradition 

This is awesome I love smoked salmon and could listen to these stories for hours.

Love the smoke house smell theres nothing like it, in our native culture as a southeast alaska keex kwaan nation tlingit we take great pride in our way of life allways remember feed the elders the needy this is past on ancestors to great grand parents grand parents aunties uncles our elders our parents knowlege wisdom we pass it all on to our future generations cause when we walk into the forest on our way to heaven we know our people our native people will survive .its who we are as natives teachers of what we know to insure we pass on what we know ,to us natives that's honor .

This is how we can achieve meaning, and even something like immortality, when we adopt the traditions of our ancestors and continue their work so that they are not forgotten and honoured.

that was awesome! I love seeing the traditions being handed down!

Would love to see how you eat/cook with the smoked salmon.

Thank you for sharing! You guys are awesome!

I agree, it's an art, and also so delicious when done this way. It's great to see the next generation learning this art and keeping it traditional, I don't think there is any way you can modernize this, and thank goodness lol.

Great teachings Thank you 🙌🏾

So cool to see the way other traditional food is made. In Norway we coldsmoke a bit different but also a bit the same if that makes sense. Would been fun working with you guys for a week😊😊

Amazing! Well done keeping this beautiful culture alive 👍🏽. The smoked fish looks delicious!

Thank you

Awesome video! Going to show to students :-)

Salmon is life

This is awesome. Why isn't this one of those UNESCO World Heritage protected traditions? You know what I'm talking about? The Tribe should apply to UNESCO.
