Born in 1960, the sixth of thirteen children, Velma Wallis comes of age in a two-room log cabin in remote Fort Yukon, Alaska. Raising Ourselves is an irresistible story of growing up Gwich'in. It is gritty and sobering yet filled with laughter even a to present. But hope pushes back hopelessness, and a new strength and wisdom emerge.
