Happy Sami Day. Thanks to "Stranger in a Strange Land" for piquing my interest in my family's Sami roots. Laestadianism's history is inseparable from the history of the Sami people. Someday when I have more time, I would like to investigate how ancient Sami culture is still expressed (and repressed) among its descendants.
This is my daughter last year at her elementary school's Cultural Festival. She chose a colorful outfit to go with the flag and was very proud to carry it.
How about you? What is your connection to Sami history or culture?
