The Sami, who have inhabited Europe's far north for thousands of years, are often referred to as the continent's 'forgotten people'. With Sapmi, their traditional homeland, divided between four nation-states - Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Russia - the Sami have experienced the profound oppression and discrimination that characterise the fate of indigenous people worldwide: their lands have been confiscated, their beliefs and values attacked, their communities and families torn apart. Yet the Sami have shown incredible resilience, defending their identity and their territories and retaining an important social and ecological voice - even if many, progressives and leftists included, refuse to listen. Liberating Sapmi is a stunning journey through Sapmi and includes in-depth interviews with Sami activists and artists boldly standing up for the rights of their people. In this beautifully illustrated work, Gabriel Kuhn, author of over a dozen books and our most fascinating interpreter of global social justice movements, aims to raise awareness of the ongoing fight of the Sami for justice and self-determination. The first accessible English-language introduction to the culture and history of the Sami people and the first account that focuses on their political resistance, this provocative work gives irrefutable evidence of the important role the Sami play in the resistance of indigenous people against an economic and political system whose power to destroy all life on earth has reached a scale unprecedented in the history of humanity.
