A rally was held on the Delaney Park Strip in downtown Anchorage on October 22. The Rally was for support of Alaska Native hunting and fishing rights. Many people from around Alaska showed their support with signs and speeches.

Here are some photos from the rally.

One message I heard a couple of times was “What’s good for Alaska Natives is good for Alaska.”
