Good lord has anyone seen this before? I just randomly found it today, and the first 30 seconds or so are gold. Al Jazeera had to pay those people to act like that to push their anti-alcohol agenda right?

Yeah, I didn't know it was a report by them until the very end, but then the rest of the video made much more sense.

Hmmm, look a lot like African American behavior, no?

Looks like a lot of our villages. Places where few need to work, and love to drink.

Why are the older people like the teacher, Councilwoman and Elder more of a light brown color and the others more dark black?

No, it looks like a lot of Native American behavior
Very sad what has happened to the Indians & Aborigines/Aboriginals (sp?)

Yep, go to some of our native villages here in AK and you see the same thing. Many villages outlawed booze, or the sale of it but it still gets in. Most don't need to work and have nothing to do but get drunk, and they have an terrible tolerance for it.

They haven't been the same since Crocodile Dundee's woman stole their souls with her camera machine.

Yeah, the Australians handled it similarly. Though, some in the communities moved on to inhaling fumes from gasoline. Prompted BP Australia to develop a special fuel: LINK

Yep, and some dry villages have gone back to wet, or damp here. When dry, they can't stop the behavior and it just seems to push the natives into doing more dangerous things.

Not even trying to be funny here, but I've heard that inbreeding is a major problem with the Natives up in Alaska

Exactly, it looks like any housing project in the US on any night. I wonder if the people that work in Australia are forced to buy the alcohol for those trashy mother frickers.

When you have 300-600 ppl in an isolated village, I am sure everyone is related somehow. Natives in SE tried to solve this with marriage traditions involving clans, but it isn't very effective.
