Trivia! One of the things that has entered "common knowledge" over the past decade or two is that "Inuit" is the preferred term for Northern peoples. Only thing is, "Inuit" doesn't mean "Northern people"; it refers to just one people, one that happens to dominate in Canada, but not in Alaska. So it would be a mistake, for example, to say that Obama had a photo op with some Inuit children; as noted, they're Yup'ik.
ReplyDeleteIn Alaska, "Eskimo" is not necessarily disrespectful; it's better than guessing "Inuit" and almost certainly guessing wrong. Say "Eskimo" if you're not sure, or even better, ask.
