LIfe of Noah Piugattuk."

The film is followed by a discussion led by our very own Department Chair, Lisa
Stevenson—and then on to Thomson House to continue the discussion and forging
of community bonds (highly encouraged)!
Kapuivik, north Baffin Island, 1961. Noah Piugattuk’s nomadic Inuit band live
and hunt by dogteam, just as his ancestors did when he was born in 1900. When
the white man known as Boss arrives in camp, what appears as a chance meeting
soon opens up the prospect of momentous change.
See the attached poster and REGISTRATION LINK for more info re: public health
measures, etc. and to register (also here: https://bit.ly/RJWGFilm).
Looking forward to seeing you there!
With an increasing amount of excitement,
Adam
(On behalf of the rest of the Racial Justice Working Group)
