You came for four winds’ hats and reindeer and yoik and shaman drums? You came to the wrong blog.You came to get an idea of who Saami people are today and how some of us live? This is a good place to start.
This blog isn’t meant to be all-inclusive. It is only meant to challenge the most insidious and harmful stereotypes that are still used to keep us in our place and the ways in which we are still being objectified, romanticized, fetishized and dehumanized; how not our lands but also our minds and bodies and families and friendships are still being colonized.To this end, this blog is exclusively run by Saami people and contributions are only taken from Saami people. The sources we promote are either Saami-authored or Saami-authorized. Non-Saami sympathizers are welcome and appreciated, but what is needed now to further the dialogue? is OUR VOICES. It’s time for white settlers to step the fuck back.
