Two excellent people were recently awarded the Society for Visual Anthropology’s Jean Rouch Award. Amber Ridington and Kate Hennessy were recognized for Dane Wajich: Dane-zaa Stories and Songs – Dreamers and the Land, an outstanding Vrtual Museum of Canada sponsored website project on the culture of the Doig River First Nation in Northern British Columbia. Get all the details here. I am sorry that I did not get more of a chance to chat with Amber and Kate at the AAA meetings (or to see Amber at all at the AFS meetings). Congratulations to them and to their many collaborators among the Dane-zaa.
