(We were hidden / We are seen)

Historically, the stories of Inuit do not shy from the taboo, the hidden, the parts of being that others whisper about. When did we begin to whisper, too? 

ᐃᔨᓚᐅᖅᓯᒪᔪᒍᑦ / ᑕᑯᓯᒪᔪᒍᑦ (Ijilauqsimajugut/Takusimajugut We were hidden / We are seen) seeks to voice the stories of the Inuit identities beyond the binary, contextualizing the changes within Inuit concepts of gender and sexuality, recognizing the history and acknowledging the impacts of rapid post-contact cultural shifting on queer Inuit identities.
