Today, February 16 is Elizabeth Peratrovich Day in Alaska, marking the anniversary of the signing of an anti-discrimination bill passed by Alaska’s territorial legislature in 1945. The holiday honors the civil rights leader born Elizabeth Wannamaker in Petersburg July 4, 1911. She was instrumental in the passage of that law during a time when women were rarely a part of the political world and decades before the national movement for African American civil rights.
Lately Peratrovich has gained more national recognition with her face on a dollar coin issued by the U.S. Mint last year. She was also the subject of a Google doodle at the end of 2020 and a biography written for teens published in 2019. Long before that she was the focus of research for Petersburg resident, playwright and actor Diane Benson. ....

A Ketchikan schoolteacher is asking the school board for a year off to study homebuilding and guitar-making. A teacher that calls himself a “jack of all trades” says he’d like to take next school year to master a couple new ones.
 
Todd Henke says he’s devoted the last 12 years to teaching students all manner of practical skills, from woodworking to engineering, welding, architecture even English.
He says he’s largely self-taught.
“A lot of the different areas I’ve taught, I have, I’ve had to learn in order to teach, or just learn along with the students,” Henke said in a phone interview Wednesday. ....

Elizabeth Peratrovich


Elizabeth Peratrovich
Sometimes I can get a little paranoid, and today was one of those times. Look at that gorgeous Google doodle for today. I spend a certain amount of time looking at Alaskan legend as a source of art images for my quilting, so when I saw the Google doodle, I thought it was one of those targeted things.
Not so.
As it turns out, it is a doodle honoring an Alaskan Tlingit woman, Elizabeth Peratrovich. I’ve taken the following from Wikipedia (to which I donate, so I am comfortable sharing what they have to say. I love that it is updated to show today’s doodle.) This woman was something special: ....

Alaskans may recognize a familiar face on Google’s homepage Wednesday: civil rights activist Elizabeth Peratrovich.
The illustration was created by Tlingit artist Michaela Goade of Sitka, who says Google reached out in August to see if she was interested in collaborating on a Peratrovich design. Peratrovich was an instrumental player in passing the Anti-Discrimination Act of 1945 the first law of its kind to be passed by a U.S. state or territory in the 20th century.
“It’s been really heartwarming, so much local support and excitement in our smaller Southeast Alaska community where her name is a household name,” Goade said. “We don’t always get a lot of attention in the bigger, national way, so I think having that representation geographic wise and Indigenous represent ....
