  2. Did you know that Norway is, at least partially, a settler colonial state? From a bit into the 1800s, the young nation set out to properly colonize the North, and a 100-years-long official program of forceful and violent assimilation of the native Sami populations was embarked upon. Generations of children were taken away from their parents and sent to "Norwegianizing" boarding schools to have their Sami cultures and languages beaten out of them. :sami: #NorwayFacts #SamiNationalDay

  4. The indigenous Sámi people rely on the land & wildlife for their cultural survival.

    But #ClimateChange & industries threaten the fragile balance between people & nature in the Arctic.

    On #SamiNationalDay, we explore these issues in our article 👉 greens-efa.eu/opinions/sami-cl

  6. Sámi national day:
    Check out this nice website with phrases in the Sámi languages.

    While not mutually intelligible, there are similarities that people who know Finnish or Estonian will notice.

    I haven't seen 'Frozen II', but I have it on my list. It's important to remember that colonialism is a global system (of systems) that is ongoing, AND ongoing in Europe (and not just with the Sámi). Check out Hoot's video as she breaks down the good and the bad, attempts and misfires of Disney's follow-up to the mega-hit 'Frozen'. It's a great video, you should watch it, and you should do it because tomorrow (February 6) is Sámi National Day. And cultural learnings are never wrong. Lots of resources in the video description as well.
