Her extraordinary story, sometimes humourous and sometimes heartbreaking, illustrates an Inuit woman?s movement between worlds and ways of understanding. It also provides a clear-eyed record of the changes that swept through Inuit communities in the 1940s and 1950s. Mini Aodla Freeman was born in 1936 on Cape Hope Island in James Bay. At the age of sixteen, she began nurse's training at Ste. Therese School in Fort George, Quebec, and in 1957 she moved to Ottawa to work as a translator for the then Department of Northern Affairs and Natural Resources. Her memoir, Life Among the Qallunaat, was published in 1978 and has been translated into French, German, and Greenlandic. Life Among the Qallunaat is the third book in the First Voices, First Texts series, which publishes lost or under appreciated texts by Indigenous writers. This reissue of Mini Aodla Freeman?s path-breaking work includes new material, an interview with the author, and an afterword by Keavy Martin and Julie Rak, with Norma Dunning. 410 0$aFirst voices, first texts ;$v3. 606 $aInuit$zCanada$vBiography 607 $aCanada$2fast 607 $aKanada$2gnd 610 $aDepartment of Indian and Northern Affairs. 610 $aInuit. 610 $aJames Bay. 610 $aOttawa. 610 $aautobiography. 610 $atuberculosis. 615 0$aInuit 676 $a971.004/971 700 $aFreeman$b Minnie Aodla$01719156 702 $aMartin$b Keavy 702 $aRack$b Julie 702 $aDunning$b Norma 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910827662303321 996 $aLife among the Qallunaat$94116728 997 $aUNINA
