примечательно, что в первую очередь за снятие топили тлинкиитские тетки и Николай Галанин, причем Галанин жег напалмом

During persons to be heard, Nicholas Galanin was one of over a dozen residents who called for the removal or replacement of the monument.

“Baranov is a historic figure who is responsible for murder, enslavement, rape and a perpetrator of genocide. This history is still felt by our Indigenous communities today. Indigenous women are statistically highest in missing and murdered cases across North America. Our languages have to be revitalized because they were violently taken from us,” Galanin said. “Use this opportunity to be on the just side of history.”

Galanin also shared a section of an email Assembly Member Valorie Nelson sent to another community member earlier that day.

“Valorie says ‘Maybe we should remove the totem poles and the war canoes,’ and then goes on to say ‘When is this going to end, if you don’t like our town there are other places that might make you happier,” he quoted.

Galanin then called for Nelson to step down from her assembly seat. “I don’t think that she’s capable of serving the community with words like that,” he said.
