Puncturing Parts of Historyâs Blindness: South Saami and South Saami Culture in Early Picture Postcards
In this chapter, I discuss early picture postcards of South Saami and South Saami culture from approximately 1880â1950. The point of departure is Tromsø University Museumâs collection of more than 3800 postcards with Saami motives as well as the postcard exhibition âWith an eye for the SĂĄmiâ at Perspektivet Museum in the same city. While postcards of Saami have a bad reputation as objects of contempt or symbols of oppression, I emphasize their potential as historical sources. How picture postcards are technologies of memory that may help reclaim a hidden or lost past, providing both personal and collective value as they open up discussions related to colonization and decolonization
