The Sami people, based primarily in Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia, continue their struggles against oppression and colonialism, old and new. For centuries, they have been fighting institutionalized racism, marginalization, and the repression of their culture and language. Although they have won recognition and respect, their work has not ended. Through artistic means and cultural resilience, the Sami are asserting their rights to exist and thrive in their native lands.
