On #IndigenousPeoplesDay, let us remember Qalaherriaq, an Inughuit hunter & interpreter from Greenland who played a vital role in the 1850 search for the lost Franklin expedition, yet was cruelly abducted back to England and died there
On #IndigenousPeoplesDay, let us remember Qalaherriaq, an Inughuit hunter & interpreter from Greenland who played a vital role in the 1850 search for the lost Franklin expedition, yet was cruelly abducted back to England and died there
His journey reflects both the resilience of Inuit culture and the complexities of colonial history
Let’s honor his legacy and the deep Indigenous connections to land, exploration, and storytelling. 🌿🛶
