'Argument Angry Inuk'

Have you ever watched a video that completely contradicted everything that you believed in? Me either, until after watching the document “Angry Inuk”. I although thought of myself as a good person: vegetarian, feminist, donated money to the homeless and starving, not buying leathers, furs, bone, etc. items, recycling, buying fair trade, but Alethea Arnaquq-Barill made it seem like I was the one out clubbing baby harp seals. Born in the capital city of Nunavut, Iqaluit, one of her first memories is going seal hunting. In the Inuit culture, seals provides them food and clothing for themselves as well as an income. It is a happy day when someone bring home a seal, calling out for a community dinner. But the anti-seal hunting groups have been on

Which for the Inuit was fine, as they did not hunt harp seal pups as they had little meat to be much use. Yet their sails in furs drop drastically, causing them their great depression (pers. comm., A. Arnaquq-Barill, October 19, 2017). Even though the banned had an exception for the “tradition Inuit”, fur sales still dropped as no one was buying them. Thus after twenty-five years of partitioning, they were finally able to sell a unfinished seal skin for $100, making hunting a somewhat livable job option. The way they hunt seals is sustainable, ceritain more sustainable than the southerners (because everyone is south to them) way of factory farming meat. With seal being a healthy meat option, they use the fur to supply themselves, and as an economic source on the global market. Like when humans use to hunt for whales, the entire seal is used, and no parts gone to waste. From the job as the hunter, to the women who clean the skin and cook the meat. Then the children who uses the skin as sleds to break it in, and gives it to the seamstress to making clothing out of. One seal provides a full community worth of work and on a full stomach too
