Artist weaves Native values into baskets

By Kim Marquis
Juneau, Alaska (AP)

Della Cheney said she sees Southeast Alaska Native cultures coming back into focus in many ways, but for the weaver, the emergence of art is a primary way to teach and remind her people about traditional tribal values.

Cheney, whose Tlingit name is Kaats saa waa, teaches Native culture at Floyd Dryden Middle School in Juneau, where she shares with her students a list of values describing “Our Way of Life,” written during the 2004 Elders Forum on Traditional Values.
