Becoming geographers together
This essay explores how collaborative learning and community-engaged research reshape the practice of geography. Drawing from our experiences – one author raised along Japan’s rural coast, the other between Indiana and Hiroshima – we examine how working together as mentor and doctoral student evolved into a co-learning partnership. Our work with Indigenous communities, including the Ainu in northern Japan and Iñupiat in Arctic Alaska, reveals the…
“The Whale Brings Us Together”: Humanistic Explorations of Climate Change and Iñupiaq Community Resilience in Arctic Alaska
Ainu Princess Rescues”
Unsettling the Polarization against Global Climate Change and Food Insecurity
In this article, we explore how Indigenous communities around the world are working to reclaim and revive their connections with each other. Shawn Wilson, an Opaskwayak Cree scholar, refers to this effort as "relational accountability." Underscoring the significance of the nascent Indigenous environmental humanities, its primary goal is to preserve Indigenous cultural knowledge across generations and homelands, especially during times of ongoing …
Multispecies relations, multispecies justice, and multispecies futurism
I was in between jobs when my daughter was born. As a trailing spouse, immigrant, and first-time mother in Norman, Oklahoma, spending night and day with the wide-eyed newborn distorted my life bala
The Whale and the Cupcake Revisited
Inspired by Julia O'Malley's The Whale and the Cupcake (2019), which portrays the contemporary foodscape in Alaska, this study explores Alaska Native foodways as a source of future cultural resiliency to cope with increasing climatic and socio-environmental uncertainties. Foregrounding the importance of niqipiaq (Native food or "real food" in Iñupiatun), this article investigates the interplay of the tradition and renovation of the Iñupiat foodsc…
The Wake of the Whale
Whale Snow
Challenging Anti‐Sealing Campaigns in the Arctic
People of the Whales
Research on the human dimensions of global climate change should consider the way at‐risk populations confront uncertainty through cultural practices. This is a vital point for indigenous peoples around the world, but particularly for those in the Arctic region where the effects of climate change are most dramatic. The Iñupiat of Arctic Alaska are especially susceptible to climatic and associated environmental changes, because they rely on sea ic…

Linking Indigenous and Scientific Knowledge of Climate Change
We explore the connections among indigenous climate-related narratives, documented temperature changes, and climate change impact studies from the scientific literature. We then propose a framework for enhancing synthesis of these indigenous narratives of observed climate change with global assessments. Our aim is to contribute to the thoughtful and respectful integration of indigenous knowledge with scientific data and analysis, so that this ric…
Climate Change and Cultural Survival in the Arctic
This article explores the interface of climate change and society in a circumpolar context, particularly experienced among the Iñupiaq people (Iñupiat) of Arctic Alaska. The Iñupiat call themselves the “People of the Whales,” and their physical and spiritual survival is based on their cultural relationship with bowhead whales. Historically the broader indigenous identity, spawned through their activism, has served to connect disparate communities…
Kiavallakkikput Agviq (Into the Whaling Cycle)
The Iñupiat of Arctic Alaska identify themselves as the “People of the Whales.” The flesh of the bowhead whale (Balaena mysticetus) is high in vitamins and other components that traditionally sustained human physiology in a climate that is unsuitable for agriculture. Not surprisingly, the People of the Whales depend on the bowhead for sustenance and cultural meaning. The bowhead remains central to Iñupiat life and culture through the hunting proc…
No whale, no music’
This article explores how climate change has recently influenced the Iñupiaq cultural identity as the people of the whales. Their traditional whaling cycle reveals strong indivisibility of music, emotions, and place based human identity. To illustrate such integrity of the Iñupiat and their culturally critical bowhead whale ( Balaena mysticetus ), a search was made for specific ways in which climate change influences Iñupiaq spiritual and physica…
Our Home is Drowning
Contemporary storytelling among the IÑupiat of Point Hope, Alaska, is a means of coping with the unpredictable future that climate change poses. Arctic climate change impacts IÑupiat lifeways on a cultural level by threatening their homeland, their sense of place, and their respect for the bowhead whale that is the basis of their cultural identity. What I found during my fieldwork was that traditional storytelling processed environmental changes …
