Inscription: "In this drawing, they are out on the land. It is nighttime. They are setting up their temporary camp, building an iglu — two hunting parties. They are staying the night out on the land, hunting. That is how they did it... They do not just go to the shed and pick their dinner like White people. They have no choice but to hunt for it."
