Native Women on Kodiak Islan, Alaska, tell a different story of the past than that recreated by the visible, dominant cultural forms. This study explores the differences in women's perceptions, values, and beleives based on oral history interviews. These were conducted on Kodiak during two years as a resident, then intermittenly over a seven-year period. Conclusions are based on participant-observation, comparison of ethnographic materials, and analysis of gener as a critical factor in the construction of identity, cultural values, and history.
