In memory of the Germans' burning of Finnmark and Northern Troms in Norway, at the end of WW2, from the anniversary performance from the 100th anniversary of the first Sami national meeting held in 1917. The Sami were hit hard, because this was the core Sami area (which today has been significantly reduced). Most Sami live in Norway. 21 hospitals were lost 31,500 telephone poles were blown up thousands of buildings, including people's homes - many places 100% of buildings got lost in the flames all the cattle were slaughtered bridges, roads, quays, boats destroyed 35,000 forcibly evacuated about 100 perished The burning and evacuation were the nail in the coffin for Sami culture. Flight, loss of property and reconstruction became such a big task that the people of Finnmark and Northern Troms had enough to deal with. After generations of systematic oppression, the Sami gave up. They chose to move on without language and culture, leaving their children and grandchildren groping in the blind - who were we really? It has taken several decades to save the remains, because although language and culture survived inland, in small communities based on reindeer husbandry, most of the Sami along the coast and in the valleys were robbed of their cultural and linguistic heritage, and thus their identity. The Germans didn't just burn down the belongings of our grandparents - they wiped out a culture.
