Indigenous Languages Series: Martha Peet Episode 2

Inuk elder Martha Peet was born in an igloo in Taloyoak, where only four other families lived. Life was very different back then when people followed what is known as the Inuit Laws and a traditional way of life. Peet recounts life on the land, surviving the harsh winters, and the process of oral traditions.
