In the second meeting there were 17 people.  Youngest of the group was in his mid -twenties and a few elders in there sixties. We started the meeting and talked about what has changed through out the years (language and culture).  Mr. M showed them a stool, which he used as an example of how to raise a child and how the community is involved in raising a child. We gave some examples of what changed.  One of the examples was the name of the places we use today such as Chadwick Lake and the proper name for that lake is Qerrullicuarvik.  Some of the people started smiling and seeing what was being changed through of the years.  We then wrote “Ways of knowing” on the board and said what an Ideal Yup’ik person would know when he or she became a young adult.  Language was first on the list and then we went on from there.  They came to a conclusion that Language and Culture were not to be separated. One would not survive with out the other.  During the meeting, there would be silence and you could feel the strong connections of what was missed and what is being lost and they did not want lose anything more.  Not if they could help it.  The meeting ended in a high note of wanting more people in the meeting. The next meeting was set for December. Meeting was set to be no more then an hour, but lasted more then two hours.
