Alaska's State Seal: A Call for Change

Alaskas state seal, adopted in 1959, is under scrutiny for not fully representing its Indigenous identities or resources. The current seal, featuring mining and timber, is inaccurate as Alaska doesnt have ore smelters and its economy is driven by oil production. A call for a new state competition to redesign the seal is gaining traction, aiming to create a symbol that truly represents all of Alaskas people, its past, present, and future.
