      From: benlizro@ihug.co.nz              Inuk (Inuvialuk) writer.       Born 1930, at:       - Baillie-Hamilton Island, Nunavut (says Crystal). But no indigenous       population of this island is mentioned.       - Baillie Island, Northwest Territories (says Wikipedia). This is more       likely.       Lived in Souris (Manitoba), later in Ireland.              Published two autobiographical books: My Name is Masak (1977) and The       Restless Nomad (1992).              Crystal quotes passages relating to the present state of the Inuit       language and the difficulties of carrying it on.              https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alice_Masak_French              Is it OK to use "Eskimo"?       Read Wikipedia's current summary:       https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eskimo              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
