Talking Forum for Alaska

I didn't count all the states that you have listed in forum groups but I did notice that there isn't one for those of us up here in Alaska....Can you help a brother out?

Tran could probably add Alaska to the regional list. But you might be talking to yourself most of the time.

They prefer to be called 'Inuit' now. Well, at least the indigenous people of the Canadian north prefer Inuit. Not sure what their cousins in Alaska think.

Is it considered offensive?

If so I didn't know. Sorry to anyone who may get offended.

I'm not an expert on the subject, but I think Eskimo is about as politically correct as calling the more southerly first nations populations 'Red Skins'. The most popular meaning for the term 'Eskimo' is 'eater of raw meat'. Now, the legitimacy of this definition is debatable, some say it means something like 'snow shoe wearer'. Regardless, the connotations of that popular definition are decidedly negative (despite the fact they do traditionally eat raw meat). Anyway, it was decided that Inuit ("the people") would be a much more PC term.
