Sorry about the Facebook link, but there's very little news out of Ketchican Alaska and I felt compelled to share. This has hit three Inuit communities very hard.

My entire Scottish life, the Union Jack has been anathema. It's not OUR flag. For many Scots, the UJ represents sectarianism, racism, & colonialism

The majority of Scots WANT to leave, voted to stay in the EU, & do not vote for the party controlling Westminster.

These are mostly indigenous communities in Alaska that have been slammed by the storm.

The local manager of a small airline fleet says he is the only one doing evacuations right now!

Defund FEMA and people are abandoned. Defund public media and no-one knows.

FYI, today is Indigenous Peoples Day.

Flooding seen with water up to the crash barriers of local roads

Sheds and debris lie scattered in the storm

A small blue house has been blown onto its roof

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.
