Folks, friends, yโallโฆ. esk*mo is a slur. I understand a lot of people donโt know that, I donโt want to be a dick about it, but Iโve been seeing it in fics. Wanna write โesk*mo kissesโ? Just say โnuzzled nosesโ or something.
Iโm not here to call anybody out, itโs been in multiple fics, Iโm not vague posting. This is just a psa. ๐๐ป
If you could help me spread awareness about this by reblogging, Iโd really appreciate it.
Iโve had this post on insta saved for sometime โค๏ธ
[Text Description: โHey! Reminder: Eskimo is a slur. It means โsnow eatersโ in Cree and is a slur against Inuit . Also donโt use โEskimo kissesโ. Itโs called Kunik. It is a greeting mostly used for familyโฆ Kunik was how Iโd greet my mom and grandmother as a small child.โ /TD]
Rebloging for the awareness and especially for the alternative words
And so people who are just learning this now know the proper usage: โInuitโ is plural. The singular is โInukโ, as in โhe is an Inukโ
