She is a feminist, and has argued that there are extensive divisions of power in politics as a result of patriarchy. She has argued that violence against women in Greenland is not attributable only to alcohol abuse since violence "is happening to women more than to men". While she believes that there are similarities among all Inuit peoples, she believes that calls for Inuit self-determination in Greenland—such as Greenlandic independence—are problematic, since generalizing an Inuit worldview is not possible, even within the country. She said that independence is the ultimate goal of her work, "in some form or another", while continuing to work toward a "broader or wider deal with Denmark" in the meantime. Ultimately, she said, "self-determination is about freedom from violence and [from] fear of violence".
