Indigenous Languages Series: Martha Peet Episode 5

When Martha Peet was born in Taloyoak, only four other families lived there. Life back then was very different, and she grew up travelling the Arctic by dog sled.

Peet only started attending school when she was ten when a federal day school was built in her community. However, that wasn't when her education started. Listen to Peet's story as she discusses her early life for the Indigenous Languages Series.
