Luckily that has changed for the better in Norway. We have radio stations, TV stations and signage in Sami. There’s a lot of money being put into educating kids and adults for what the country did, and there’s a lot of discussion on how to make Norwegian websites more friendly to the Sami (translations etc).

This is the way to move forward. Only by understanding and spreading awareness of the cruelties of the past can we avoid repeating them.

Tbh that’s the only way forward. Trying to hide the past only makes the current issues worse, and I assume facilitates a more divided country.

I truly wish Romania would do the same with Roma people here. The culture is still very racist towards them without any actual understanding of what Romanians did to cause this to happen in the first place.

Short version: slavery followed by mass murder during WW2 (not on the scale of the Jews, but still pretty bad) followed by forced assimilation of the style described above against the Sami.
