Jännittävä viikko tulossa. Loppukevään julkiset osallistumiseni osuvat kaikki samalle eli nyt alkavalle viikolle. 😃
Minulta kysyttiin aiemmin, haluaisinko kommentoida julkisuuteenkin kiirineitä uutisia Saamelaisten totuus- ja sovintokomission haasteista.
Ehdotukseni: voisiko kulttuurisia ilmenemismuotoja tuoda mukaan Saamelaisten totuus- ja sovintokomission työskentelyn tueksi, kuten duodjia?
Just a quick reminder: I don't give research interviews. I do them only when the research is extremely well designed from Indigenous perspectives. Even then it must be worth my time & effort.
If you can wear lipstick, things can't be that bad, so just bring me the action. 💄 By the way, did you know that silver is the most appreciated metal among the Sámi as it's thought to protect from bad spirits. So I rarely exit home without wearing silver... Because you never know how the outside world is.
