CW: Violence gynécologique coloniale au Groenland
Le #Groenland devraient appartenir aux #Groenlandais, c'est ma position #anticoloniale
Par hasard je découvre:
des milliers de jeunes #Inuites ont reçus par des #médecins #danois sans le savoir, sans #consentement des #stérilets très grands et super douloureux pour réduire les naissances au sein de leur #nation.
Lors de visite médicale ou en se rendant à l'#hôpital. 🤢 -

Nalujuk Night is an up close look at an exhilarating, and sometimes terrifying, #Labrador #Inuit tradition. Every January 6th from the dark of the #Nunatsiavut night, the #Nalujuit appear on the sea ice. They walk on two legs, yet their faces are animalistic, skeletal, and otherworldly. Snow crunches underfoot as they approach their destination: the Inuit community of #Nain.
Despite the frights, Nalujuk Night is a beloved annual event, showing that sometimes it can be fun to be scared. Rarely witnessed outside of Nunatsiavut, this annual event is an exciting chance for Inuit, young and old, to prove their courage and come together as a community to celebrate #culture and #tradition.
#Inuk filmmaker Jennie Williams brings audiences directly into the action in this bone-chilling black and white short #documentary about a winter night like no other.

Je suis allé au théâtre avec ma mère voir la pièce *Kukum*. Vraiment très bon, très émouvant. C'est l'histoire d'une orpheline blanche qui tombe amoureuse d'un inuk et qui va vivre avec lui et sa famille. Elle apprend les traditions inuits et à vivre dans la nature.
J'ai beaucoup aimé l'aspect intergénérationnel: le récit commence quand elle a 15 ans et se termine quand elle est grand-mère et parle avec sa petite-fille qui redécouvre ses origines.

#Canada moves to protect #CoralReef that scientists say ‘shouldn’t exist’
Discovery was made after #FirstNations tipped off #ecologists about groups of fish gathering in a fjord off #BritishColumbia
by Leyland Cecco in Toronto
Fri 15 Mar 2024"On the last of nearly 20 dives, the team made a startling discovery – one that has only recently been made public.
"'When we started to see the living corals, everyone was in doubt,' says Cherisse Du Preez, head of the deep-sea ecology program at Fisheries and Oceans Canada. 'Then, when we saw the expansive fields of coral in front of us, everybody just let loose. There were a lot of pure human emotions.'
"Despite existing in absolute darkness, the lights of the submersible captured the rich pinks, yellows and purples of the #corals and #sponges.
"The following year, the team mapped #LopheliaReef, or #q̓áuc̓íwísuxv, as it has been named by the #Kitasoo Xai’xais and #Heiltsuk First Nations. It is the country’s only known living coral reef.
"The discovery marks the latest in a string of instances in which Indigenous knowledge has directed researchers to areas of scientific or historic importance. More than a decade ago, #Inuk oral historian Louie Kamookak compared #Inuit stories with explorers’ logbooks and journals to help locate Sir John Franklin’s lost ships, HMS Erebus and HMS Terror. In 2014, divers located the wreck of the Erebus in a spot Kamookak suggested they search, and using his directions found the Terror two years later."

Our next spotlight is on number 2 from The List, submitted by MetalheadDana.
Tanya Tagaq is a woman of immense talent. She’s the bestselling author of Split Tooth, a stunning piece of fiction/memoir set in 1970s Nunavut, written in both poetry and prose. Her English/Inuktitut picture book for children, It Bears Repeating, is set to come out in August this year. She’s an activist and overall exceptional human being, not afraid to speak her mind and call people, corporations, and governments out for the crimes they have committed against her people, others, and the environment. She co-directed and -wrote the documentary Ever Deadly, about her own life and career. And, more recently, she’s an actor, appearing in season 4 of True Detective, which she also provided the soundtrack for.
Which brings us to what she’s most known for, and why we’re here. Tanya Tagaq – often performing under the name “Tagaq” – is an award-winning experimental musician and composer, combining Inuit throat singing with improvisational vocals and various backdrops such as avant-garde classical violin, jazz, electronic beats, or nothing else at all. She’s collaborated with artists such as the Kronos Quartet, Buffy Sainte-Marie, and Björk. While she often performs at folk festivals, Tagaq’s music is truly the most metal thing you could possibly hear.
The first I heard Tagaq’s voice was on the first track of Björk’s 2004 vocal album and utter masterpiece, Medúlla. From day 1, Medúlla was instantly my favorite Björk album, not in small part due to Tagaq’s incredible guest vocals (especially on the track “Ancestors”, which reappears on Tagaq’s first LP, the 2005 Sinaa, co-produced by Björk). It would be nearly 10 years before we (myself and MetalheadDana) finally got to see Tagaq live, in an old movie theatre, improvising a soundtrack to the 1922 silent film Nanook of the North with the film playing on the screen behind. There we picked up copies of Sinaa and the 2008 Aux / Blood (or ᐊᐅᒃ, in Inuktitut syllabics). We got to chat with her for a few minutes while she signed our CDs, and she was giddy to mention that she was thinking about doing some covers for future albums, Pixies’ “Caribou” and possibly also some Iron Maiden. Soon after that performance, she released the 2014 Animism (which we’ll come back to another day since it also appears on The List).
While I typically listen to Tagaq’s later work, going back to Aux / Blood, I think this is perhaps her most accessible album in her discography. If you’re not familiar with Tagaq’s gripping music and/or Inuit throat singing in general, this is a great introduction. Fans of Faith No More will be happy to pick out Mike Patton’s guest vocals on the album. And, for Canadian folks from Edmonton/Calgary/Vancouver, make sure you check out “Force”, “Burst”, and “Construction”, which feature the brilliant beat-boxer Shamik (also of Too Attached, Shamik’s duo with his sister – another woman of immense talent – Vivek Shraya; the duo has also performed alongside Tagaq).

Leben in der Polarnacht bei halber Ration: "Heute war ich wieder auf der Jagd, und war so glücklich ein Renthier und einen Hasen zu erlegen; obwohl der Hase für die Krancken genommen wurde, so ist das, was von dem Tiere dem Jäger zukommt, unserer Officiers-Tafel eine gute Beilage zu den kleinen Schiffs-Rationen." #Miertsching, 15.12.1853

#Inuit have lived off the land for centuries. The bond between people & their natural surroundings, #knowledge & #understanding of wildlife & #WeatherPatterns & #SeasonalChanges plays an #ImportantRole in #InuitCultures ; this needs to be #respected & #amplified the same way other #Canadian perspectives are. Though Inuit have their own governing bodies and policies, they are still affected by federal decision making.
