Naxe Godı́ T’á Łéots’ede, Sharing our Stories documents a workshop wherein Elders, Students, and other Sahtú region participants gathered to give oral histories to objects in the Prince of Wales Northern Heritage Centre (PWNHC) collection. Objects such as mukluks were identified in as many different Sahtú dialects as possible, Délı̨nę, Tulı́t’a, and Fort Good Hope. Students listened to elders talk about their purpose and history, and Elder’s quotations were preserved by the PWNHC in this record.
