Dear Qallunaat (white people)


Dear Qallunaat (white people),We have been living in the same Nunavut cities and towns for some time now. I have thought a lot about the level of damage having a highly transient, mostly white population does to Nunavut. More, even though this is primarily addressed to white people, white supremacy is common among people of all backgrounds — including Inuit (even me) — either to get ahead or not be left behind. All white people are racist to some degree because they are born and raised in a system made by white people, for white people. That we have a society, even in Nunavut, where being white or passing as white is "normal" and everything else is "other."
