Problem:
In today's society, tattoos within the Inuit culture are considered subcultural. Tattoos are becoming the new norm for not just the Inuit tribe, but for society altogether. On September 30, 2021, Canada launched "The National Day for Truth and Reconciliation" This day was contributed to indigenous people to be able to reconcile their cultural beliefs. Women within the Inuit culture wanted to start sharing their stories as their ancestors once did long ago. They began tattooing themselves with the markings of the Inuit tribe. These marking once signified the story of a woman. "You could tell her whole life story just by looking at her face, who her family was, where she came from, what her achievements were, and her place in the community." (Gerri Sharpe, Sept. 29,2021) The Catholic Church believed that tattoos were a symbol of evil and puncturing the skin allowed for evil to enter the body. After the ban of tattoos in the Inuit Tribe the woman felt shameful and began discussing their feelings in secret. Once Canada launched "The National Day of Reconciliation" it became a day of celebration for the Inuit Tribe, not only for women but, for all Inuit people. Having meaningful tattoos myself, I feel that everyone should be allowed to express themselves in their own way. You should be able to make the decision of showing them off or hiding them for your own sake. Need Assignment Help?
