The Council of the Haida Nation has an informative website with many links to documents and other material, giving a vivid picture of the vibrancy, and challenges, of contemporary Haida culture.
Among the interesting items on that page, the “Our World” series of short videos which deftly mix ancient and modern are particularly worth checking out:
- We are Not Alone. The longing of a young Haida who left the Islands six times.
- What is Change? The ocean current which pushes all along.
- The Power of the Haida: a drawing hand; “the young people of today are getting clever in their carving.”
- The Lost Raven Finding His Way: A young man goes to city, loses his dance and finds it again.
- Grounded in Tradition: Morris hears an enigmatic story from his Chini’s box.
- Our World: We are ready for the changes.
These are the among the visions of young Haida today.
