On Friday, artist Rico Worl\u2019s Raven Story Stamp was unveiled in a ceremony in Juneau.<\/p>\n<p>The stamp, which has been the first created by a Tlingit artist, commemorated a popular story among tribes of the Northwest Coast. The Tlinglit Tribe has resided in Alaska for thousands of years, with around 17,000 present day members in the state.<\/p>\n<p>Worl mentioned he believed a lot of people have learned the amount of richness in authentic work from indigenous people and their stories.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe first thing I decided was to depict the story of Raven and the box of daylight. It\u2019s sort of like one of the stories that\u2019s frequently told to people that are new to learning about the culture,\u201d he explained. \u201cI think it\u2019s a good one that has a lot of like kind of basic information about the culture, who we are, and sort of like our epistemology.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">U.S. Postal Service Honors Raven Story With Stamp \ud83d\udcec <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/RavenStoryStamp?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#RavenStoryStamp<\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NativeAmericanRavenStory?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#NativeAmericanRavenStory<\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/WTG8dcHGSz\">https:\/\/t.co\/WTG8dcHGSz<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 U.S. Postal Service (@USPS) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/USPS\/status\/1421199064889237515?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 30, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Meanwhile, the USPS is working on producing 18 million Raven Story stamps.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/biden-names-first-muslim-religious-freedom-ambassador\/\">Biden Names First Muslim Religious Freedom Ambassador<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alaska Native artist Rico Worl displays an image of the U.S. Postal Service stamp he created on his monitor, at his studio in Juneau, Alaska.
