huh, I thought Eskimo was considered derogatory by native people, but looking into it it depends on where they are from. Apparently Inuit refers specifically to Canadian tribes and natives in Alaska might prefer being called Eskimo over Inuit.

Using the wayback machine, I found this snopes-style article from the defunct urbanlegends dot com

“It now seems unlikely that "Eskimo" means "eater of raw meat". Merriam-Webster changed its etymology when it brought out MWCD10, and referred me to an article by Ives Goddard in Handbook of North American Indians (Smithsonian, 1984), vol. 5, p. 5-7. Goddard cites the following Amerindian words: 

Montagnais ayassimew="Micmac"  Plains Cree ayaskimew="Eskimo" Attikamek Cree ashkimew="Eskimo" North Shore Montagnais kachikushu or kachekweshu="Eskimo" (not analyzable but explained by speakers as meaning 'eater of   raw meat') Ojibwa eshkipot="Eskimo" (literally "one who who eats raw") Algonquin Eastern Ojibwa ashkipok="Eskimo" (literally "raw   eaters")   

Goddard writes:  "In spite of the tenacity of the belief, both among Algonquian speakers and in the anthropological and general literature [...] that Eskimo means 'raw-meat eaters', this explanation fits only the cited Ojibwa forms (containing Proto- Algonquian *ashk- 'raw' and *po- 'eat') and cannot be correct for the presumed Montagnais source of the word Eskimo itself. [...] The Montagnais word awassimew (of which ay- is a reduplication) and its unreduplicated Attikamek cognate exactly match Montagnais assimew, Ojibwa ashkime 'she nets a snowshoe', and an origin from a form meaning 'snowshoe-netter' could be considered if the original Montagnais application (presumably before Montagnais contact with Eskimos) were to Algonquians."   

A Dictionary of the Otchipwe Language by Bishop Frederic Baraga (Beauchemin & Valois, 1878) gives ashkime="I lace or fill snowshoes"; the phrase agim nind ashkima with the same meaning (agim is the noun for "snowshoe"); askimaneiab="babiche, strings of leather for lacing snowshoes"; and ashkimewin="art or occupation of lacing snowshoes".  But there are no other obvious cognates:  the words for "snowshoe", "lace", "leather", "net", and "string" are all unrelated.  In all other words beginning with "ashk-" or "oshk-", the prefix signifies "raw, fresh, new".   

Eskimos' self-designations include:

singular: Inuk,  Inupiaq,  Inuvialuk, Yupik, Yuk

plural: Inuit,  Inupiat,  Inuvialuit,  Katladlit, Yuit

language: Inuktitut, Inupiaq, Kalaallisut, Yupik

places: Canada/West Greenland, North Alaska, Mackenzie Delta, Greenland, Southwest Alaska, Siberia, St. Lawrence Island

"Inuk" and "Yuk" mean simply "person"; "Inupiaq" and "Inuvialuk" mean "real, genuine person".

Goddard writes:  "In the 1970s in Canada the name Inuit all but replaced Eskimo in governmental and scientific publication and the mass media, largely in response to demands from Eskimo political associations.  The erroneous belief that Eskimo was a pejorative term meaning 'eater of raw flesh' had a major influence on this shift.  The Inuit Circumpolar Conference meeting in Barrow, Alaska, in 1977 officially adopted Inuit as a designation for all Eskimos, regardless of their local usages [...]."“

Shaping History, Shaping Tomorrow from Tim White on Vimeo.

Tokyo is a city like no other; a sprawling metropolis that never ceases to amaze. In this video I wanted to explore the many contrasts of life in the city; between the young and the old, the traditional and the contemporary, the fast and the slow, the eastern and western influences.

This film was commissioned by Keio University for their 'Shaping History, Shaping Tomorrow' campaign. global.keio.ac.jp
