Archives Series Begins in December

The Alaska Film Archives Television Series begins airing on Friday, December 7. The programs premier each week on Friday evenings from 7:00 to 8:00 pm. They repeat over the following weekend and again on Monday during the day.

Topics for episodes of Alaska Review scheduled for December include:

-Oil Money
-Bunker Crude Oil Spill

-Coping with the Cold
-Haines Logging vs. Eagles

-Inupiat Subsistence vs. the Government:
-Whaling

-Airplane Safety
-Cameras in Court

These first programs were originally produced between 1977 and 1980. They provide an interesting historical view of the issues and are, in many cases, relevant to current events. It is also fun to see who "pops up" on screen looking thirty years younger.
