SUMMARY:Sápmi Today with Christian Hans Pedersen
DESCRIPTION:The Sámi (Northern Sámi: Sápmelaččat or Sámit) are the only recognized Indigenous people in Europe\, whose lands\, Sápmi\, are claimed and divided by the Norwegian\, Swedish\, Finnish\, and Russian nation-states. Despite the central roles they’ve played in the political\, economic\, and cultural histories of Northern Europe\, the Sámi are commonly depicted as ahistorical wildlings whose lands are an unused frontier\, ripe for development. This engaging series of lectures illuminates how untrue those depictions are. \nAbout the series: \n\nIn “Sámi History 101\,” we’ll examine the fundamentals of Sámi history and culture\, surveying oral histories\, subsistence practices\, societal organization\, and Sámi cultural icons.\nIn session two\, “Sámi History 102\,” we’ll expand on the topics in session one by inspecting how historical relations and archaeological\, linguistic\, and genetic studies contribute to the study of Sámi history.\nIn “Sámi Histories of Colonization\,” we’ll dive into how encroachment\, taxation\, and borders\, among others\, constructed and construct Fennoscandic colonialisms\, creating a timeline of how colonization has looked and still looks in Sápmi.\nIn the final segment\, “Sápmi Today\,” we’ll trace those legacies to the present to contextualize Sámi survivance\, or survival through resistance\, by examining political organizing\, rights\, and contemporary forms of colonization in Sápmi.\n\nAdditional information: \n\nA recommended reading and media list will be mailed out to all participants following the first session.\nThese live lectures will be held on Wednesday evenings over Zoom.\nAttendance requires a reliable internet connection and a device with audio and video functionality.\nAdvanced registration required; each lecture has a separate registration.
