Here is an article about Newtok that appeared in the November/December Orion Magazine.  It's a pretty interesting article discussing the impact that climate change is having on the arctic region with a focus on indigenous villages.

Newtok is out neighbor to the north and many of our students have direct relations there.  The article talks about the power of family in Yupik culture and this is so true - my students spent twenty minutes looking at the pictures in the article discussing the connections they have to the people (from parents to cousins to friends).  I recommend reading the article.
