SUMMARY:THE ROCKS WILL ECHO OUR SORROW | VIRTUAL TALK WITH ELIN ANNA LABBA & MATHILDE MAGGA
DESCRIPTION:Join us on February 25 for a virtual book talk with Sámi author and journalist Elin Anna Labba on her book The Rocks Will Echo Our Sorrow! With moderator Mathilde Magga\, she’ll discuss her research and writing on the forced displacement of the Indigenous Sámi from Norway and Sweden in the early 20th century\, told through a remarkable blend of historical reportage\, memoir and lyrical imagining that was awarded Sweden’s August Prize for Best Nonfiction in 2020. This event is co-presented with National Nordic Museum in Seattle and will take place online. *A Zoom link will be emailed to all attendees immediately after ticket purchase.* \nMore than a hundred years have passed since the Sámi were forcibly displaced from their homes in northern Norway and Sweden\, a hundred years since Elin Anna Labba’s ancestors and relations drove their reindeer over the strait to the mainland for the last time. The place where they lived has remained empty ever since. We carry our homes in our hearts\, Labba shares\, citing the Sámi poet Áillohaš. How do you bear that weight if you were forced to leave? Labba travels to the lost homeland of her ancestors to tell of the forced removal of the Sámi in the early 20th century and to reclaim a place in history\, and in today’s world\, for these Indigenous people of northern Scandinavia. \nPurchase Tickets
