Juneau, Alaska (1960)

In 1959, Alaska officially became the 49th state of the United States. This short documentary captures the voices of Juneau residents as they share their feelings about the new statehood—some ...filled with pride, others expressing doubt. The film ends with a glimpse of the historic U.S. check used to purchase Alaska from Russia in 1867, marking a turning point in American history.

🎥 I optimized the documentary for a 9:16 aspect ratio and 1080p HD resolution.

🔊 I enhanced the audio for clarity with reduced background noise, ensuring a better listening experience.
