Pictures of Barrow

Yea, I have them. I'll post them when I get a chance.

Other than the arctic fox and the ocean, the pics are pretty depressing.

It's a no wonder that the village suicide rates are as high as they are.

Between absolutely nothing to do, the incest, and physical abuse I'm surprised that there aren't more suicides.

The villages get enormous amounts of money to maintain their 'cultural heritage'. Any talk of cutting money to the villages is treated as a blatent racist attack but their lifestyle today has nothing to do with their history.

I think the State is doing a grave diservice to all the people in the villages by keeping them there.

Ah, but I digress. I try to have pics next week.
