FEMA Alaska Native Wrong Translation

Mary Peltola

FILE - Rep. Mary Peltola, left, D-Alaska, acknowledges audience members singing a song of prayer for her at the Alaska Federation of Natives conference in Anchorage, Alaska, Oct. 20, 2022. After tidal surges and high winds from the remnants of a rare typhoon caused extensive damage to homes along Alaska’s western coast in September, the U.S. government stepped in to help residents — largely Alaska Natives — repair property damage. Residents who opened paperwork expecting to find instructions on how to file for aid in Alaska Native languages like Yup’ik or Inupiaq instead were reading bizarre phrases. Peltola, who is Yup’ik, said it was disappointing FEMA missed the mark with these translations. (AP Photo/Mark Thiessen,File) AP FILE PHOTO
