at point 16:42 is my great great grampa John Oxereok from Wales Kingigin ... uarghut Kingikmiut summa

This is a great documentary!! It should have many more views. I really can appreciate the Anti-Drug promotions (we need these in Minneapolis!) as I work at Adult and Teen Challenge.

Many aspects of this video are quite good, but it only focuses on Alaska, which has just a small number of all of the Inuit people. To me that is weird, but it is typical of the American view that the entire rest of the world does not exist and doesn't matter a bit. It also glosses over the devastating effect of the coming of the whites with just 2 sentences. They mention German Measles (and smallpox?), then state "All of the residents died." They give the missionaries very high praise, and make no mention at all of the harm done by them, including the ways they forced conversion. These were were not gentle, helpful, kind, generous men, and some of them inflicted SEVERE physical, psychological, and sexual abuse. They do give considerable time to land rights issues. That is an extremely important topic that deserves attention, since it impacts people's lives immensely. I'm very happy to see that. To this day the Inuit in all the countries where they live are still suffering from colonial and paternalistic attitudes, and the greed of those colonial. They are such beautiful people,but even if they weren't, they would still deserve every bit of respect and dignity from us, and they deserve AT LEAST their fair share of the modern resources. Since they were initially robbed by us for over 100 years, that needs to be made up for. I hope that the intelligent and computer literate people who are living up north today will be able to be successful in their

Kotzebue in the summer of 1975 and 1976. Thank you for posting these videos. ❤

Cool video! I found it both educational and surprising all at the same time! Can't believe, it never crossed my mind. My whole life. I'd see weed,I'd smoke it! We would roll it and pack it too. Depending on what ever was most clever at the given moment. Hell,we even been known to plant it and grow it sometimes. But never knew that we could've been eatin it,too! Would've saved me alot of money. And I don't even want to think about,how much time I'll never get back!?Wasted on munchie runs to 7-11. And the supermarket. At all sorts of ungodly hours of the night! All coo cooed for co co puffs!

That is Paul Johnson...one of the finest humans to walk this planet. Gone too soon.

Raping the land

Tikigaq where i was raised

I still live here in Kotzebue Alaska

I remember watching these when I was a kid and we only got two channels.

I've been to all our villages. Point Hope is the oldest community in all of North America. It was I've heard from respectable people a pop of 30,000 strong.

I have been there twice, and I am looking forward to my next visit.

Thank for uploading all the content you have on your channel. Great work and glad it's been shared for the community(s) to find and see!

Man I miss those old 580s

I was the Air Force medic at the radar site in Ft. Yukon in 1972. I delivered a baby at the Indian Health facility there. I've often thought about that baby and it's family and how they are doing. The babie's father was out on trap line and his father went out to bring him in. The Episcopalian Priest wrote a nice article about that.

It's would be nice to have heat beat alaska back

This isn’t Kotzebue … the people in the video are saying it’s Stebbins, Alaska with dance groups from various other villages. Dancers in Kotzebue don’t use those kind of dance fans.

Real Fun video!!!!! ❤

long live the inuit

So who the hell are these co-op people? Why do their interests supersede yours?

I lived in the interior for 49 years. A sporting goods store brought me up here. I remember thinking back then that the fish and game in Alaska is managed politically, not biologically. I wish you guys the best of luck. Maybe someday I can get down there and check it out.

14 cents a fish!!???????😂😂

Why does it cut off on Oscars segment?

My dad sis it and got 1rst

Hi Aunt Judy Whitman.

Are they sure that these are the people who existed there for 1000's of years? Recent DNA evidence, shows that the Inuit are actually a group called the Thule, who came from Siberia no more than 900 years ago. The archaeological evidence may be of the Dorset, a people probably killed by the new comers. I'd be interested to see a DNA study done here. Remember, Science is always self correcting.

Thank you!

Henrietta!

Not much fiddling, unfortunately ...........

Amen 🙏
