The Many Ways of Being Human

3.7

The Sámi

A man sits down at a kitchen table in Kautokeino and starts to sing his grandmother: a joik is not a song about someone but the mark of a person. The chapter follows the Sámi across Sápmi, from reindeer pastures and the Alta dam protests to the 2021 ruling of Norway's Supreme Court on the wind farms at Fosen.
