Re: Creating a European Indigenous People’s Movement
Both Greenland and Iceland were formally colonies of Norway. Even when in the case of Iceland, the natives were Scandinavians themselves. Greenland was settled by the Inuits before the Norse. It doesn't matter that these Inuits were few in numbers. Not that you could expect that environment to support large populations, especially in those times.
But if that's not enough, then what do you call the Norwegian ruling over Sami settlements in Scandinavia?
To hide behind a pretention of noble savage and civilized character, is very poor.
The creation of a European indigenous initiative can only be based on true and dignifying bases, not on cheap pseudo-indigenism. The one reason that the perservation of European peoples is most important, is the value of their heritages. If you cannot preserve them in their dignity, then the whole idea becomes worthless.
