The Summer Interns had the opportunity to meet and talk with BSNC shareholder and author Holly Miowak Guise. Guise is an Inupiaq historian, author, and Assistant Professor at the University of New Mexico. She was born in Anchorage, Alaska, and her family is from Unalakleet.

The interns learned about her book, Alaska Native Resilience: Voices from World War II, published in July 2024. This book centers the voices of Alaska Native Elders and veterans by bridging institutional, federal and university archives, tribal archives, and oral histories. Guise is also the creator of World War II Alaska (WW2ALASKA.COM), a digital humanities platform featuring oral history videos of Alaska Native Elders and veterans and Unangax internment survivors.

Her work brings a voice to deep topics that many Native communities were affected by. Learn more from her book: Alaska Native Resilience: Voices from World War II or visit WW2ALASKA.COM.
