The Eskimos’ Dilema | Disappearing World

With the arrival of Canadian control over the region of Pond Inlet, Eskimos saw themselves intimidated and coheres into changing their way of life.
Now a generation of Eskimos that has known 2 completely different worlds reflects on the cost of having more confront over being one with your surroundings.
The documentary series “Disappearing World” was originally broadcasted between 1970-1975.
As an anthropological landmark of its time, the series tells the story of traditional communities endangered by the modern world’s progressions.
The series stands as a historical document of daily life in remote and threatened societies, such as the Cuiva, Embera and Panare Indians of Colombia, the nomadic Tuareg of the Sahara, the Kurdish Dervishes, and the Meo of China.

In terms of boarding school in its day it was not an easy issue. Here in the UK in England my uncle was sent away in the 1920s aged FOUR which was very young even then. We were damaging children here as well as there. On health we introduced them to awful products such as tea and cigarettes whereas today we know that drinking water and eating fish and animal fat etc is so much better for you. However I have no responsbility for what others did just because I shared their skin colour and my ancestors were much worse off in the UK, some down the coal mines aged ten years old in the 1800s.

You're right! Development brings not only benefits but also losses! On both sides! You can’t just blame whites in a developmental process that benefits everyone! Because in the process, as many white people perished as there are colored ones !! There are sacrifices on both sides, but the question is, would this developmentist give up on those whose lives have been made easier at the cost of the deaths of others? The real question that does not depend on skin color !!!

“ I couldnt decide whether the whites werent good or whether they were rotten” ...hahaha. Classic .

[@belladamex767]

I just can’t cope with the idea of traditional peoples being forced into living a new way of life because the government “says so” very deeply hurt watching this. This has happened in every corner of the earth usually brought on by greed for mining, forestry etc..... money money money..... one part that was hard for me to watch was the whale hunting to be honest, although I’m not against doing it in a sustainable way unlike Japanese whaling on a huge scale, that makes me really angry.

Amen to that love u all

Eskimos is an outdated and slightly offensive name to describe these marvelous people. They are called The Inuit, which is their correct historical name.

[@guutiitsoq9574]

I am not offended by the word eskimo. The word eskimo came from indians when they met eskimos/Inuit

[@roshanbhatta5388]

they need some schools and good place for food storage and possibly some winter crops

[@hazelpearson7807]

Nothing can grow so far north the ground is permanently frozen year round, it’s called permafrost. There was a good school there in 1974 and two stores with warehouses when this was filmed. I lived there at that time.

I am deeply regretful to have been born a white man. This is just tragic.

Inuit people of Canada, you gotta got to Alaska to find an Eskimo person.

[@daveshen0880]

*Inuit. Not inuit people, because the word inuit means people

[@nightingaleofficial3604]

1st 🤣

[@paalmuruganantham1457]

Okay

[@matthewmann8969]

Well they do not have it as bad as Amerindians

[@piccadelly9360]

It is bad when a stranger comes into your home and says that you have to live by their rules .

[@daveshen0880]

Alaskan inuit are not allowed to buy alcohol.

[@mrphiliprexn.8250]

and now they are sicker, could it be all the cigaretts ?

[@MinkesMom]

And chemicals in the homes from construction, furniture, stale air, GMO foods. ..

[@janesmith9024]

@@MinkesMom Although more likely the cigarettes and also sugar and caffeine than furniture.

[@juniperpansy]

Eskimo diet is almost entirely meat which is unhealthy. It gave them a short life expectancy. I think they are talking about infectious diseases (eg. flu, pneumonia) to which they have little resistance to, just as native americans.

[@piccadelly9360]

@@juniperpansy They needed this meat because they used up a lot of calories a day living out in the cold. Now having enough to eat they are not as fat as they used to be. And they were nomads constantly on the move. Now in their own house get sick because , are no longer in motion, not so long in the fresh air
