hey guys! i have a (relatively short) essay coming up here in a couple weeks for my anthropology class where we’re supposed to research any indigenous group and write about their language, ethnic identity, economy, political system, kinship, marriage, religion, art, issues they’ve faced due to globalization, and how anthropologists are working with this group. this kinda feels like a weird (and maybe insensitive) question to ask so i’m sorry if the way i’m framing it comes off strange, but does anyone know of any specific indigenous peoples that you’d recommend for me to study? they can be from anywhere, the americas, the arctic, africa, oceania, etc. thanks in advance
The Sámi people, spread across the Nordic countries of Norway, Sweden, and Finland, would have a lot to write about since their way of life and their issues are well documented with a lot of interaction with the rest of Europe.
