Manage episode 337220959 series 3380170
Former Sámi Parliament President Aili Keskitalo declared Standing Rock "is our common cause. It has become symbolic, one may rightly say that this is the world's Alta-case" (NRK Nyheter 07.11.2016)
In this episode, we meet Professor Siv Ellen Kraft, who talks about the shift to 'indigeneity' and 'indigenous religions' among the Sámi, through a focus on Sámi activism in Alta (1979-1981, concerning a proposed power plant) and Standing Rock (2016-2017, concerning a proposed pipeline).
For more on this topic, read Kraft's chapter Indigenous Religion(s) - in the Making and on the Move: Sámi activism from Alta to Standing Rock (Routledge 2020).
