Norway seems to be showing more respect for its indigenous Sami people in recent times. No one used to care about the Sami National Day (formerly known as the Sami People's Day). Now they give it more prominent news coverage, there's a banquet in Oslo City Hall and a recipe for the popular Sami dish Bidos appeared in the food section on a major news site. Also, I saw a whole bunch of people proudly wearing Sami clothing down town. Being Sami used to be a thing to be ashamed of.
