In Inuktitut, a shaman is called an angakkuq - meaning someone that is in touch with the spiritual world

Since the arrival of christianity on Inuit land, shamanism went extinct

But, retelling the stories of Angakkuit is to keep that history alive #History #Inuit #Arctic

Nunavut is building 3,000 homes by 2030 to combat the territory's housing crisis.

But will any of these new homes have space to accommodate multi-generational families?
