I know next to nothing about southern culture. I can't comment on it. Juneau has a rich racial mixture. From my white man's point of view I don't see anything but universal acceptance of the diverse culture. Quite a lot of attention gets paid to "celebrating cultural diversity." Our employee group where I work is called "Woo Ch'een" which is Tlingit for "Working Together." Ever eat herring eggs from a hemlock branch? I have. It's a Tlingit delicacy. I probably will again tomorrow at our Christmas party, which my employer dutifully makes sure is referred to as the Holiday Party and covers the wall with posters explaining Ramadan, Hannucha (sp?) and Kwanzaa. I'm sure there are understandable resentments among some natives, but most would just like to participate in the world the way it is. The native corporations are by and large profitable, and they have complete dominion over how their lands are managed.
