Aliqa Illauq is from Kangiqtugaapik in the Qikitaaluk Region of Nunavut. She works as an Instructor with Inuit youth, and is doing a combined Honours in Law, Human Rights, and Social Justice, with a minor in Indigenous Studies. Aliqa is Inuk (a human) - a thoughtful, kind, hard-working, and badass revolutionary kind of human - and mother to three.
I heard Aliqa speak for the first time in Isaac Murdoch's first 'Revolution of the Heart' online concert event, which we both contributed to. Since then I've had the pleasure to listen to more of her thoughts and challenges through her social media platforms. I am very grateful that she made time in her very busy schedule to sit down with me and have this wonderful and inspiring conversation. Qujannamik, Aliqa!
We recorded our conversation in Ottawa, October 2021.
