Sweden´s dark history

Soon Monday. A new week. I have written a little today. I told you previously that I like my characters in the book very much. Tonight I am going to write something very difficult. I have previously told you that I am a mixture of, what to say, many different people. I have some lappish origin. What the rest is; honestly, I don´t know.

When I was little, my parents always went to north of Sweden. To Tärnaby. So I know mountains. I love mountains. They are very beautiful. However, since I am grown up close to Uppsala in the countryside that culture has been my so called base. I have always been told that I have an interesting origin but I have never understood the meaning of that.

I have been told terrible things. In the 18th century, Swedish government forced lappish people by putting them in ice till they did what they were told. This has continued for a long time. Till the mid 1950s. This burden has been inherited by generation after generation. Swedish government has never given an apology.

I think it was in the 1980s Lappish people were acknowledged by Swedish government by having an own government. I don´t really know if that is a good solution. To the best of my knowledge there are several political parties with different interests and you vote like at an ordinary parliament. Given many parties it is difficult to find good solutions for everybody.

I have really not understood that lappish people are not accepted by people in Sweden. People really don´t know that the word lap is very pejorative. The word lap is more or less integrated into Swedish language. But people have learnt how to use intonation with a mean undertone.

With this background I have always been very interested in learning about biology . I have always trusted a lot in biology. That you can find explanations in biology.

How can I explain? For example you can find several genes coupled to a disease.

By accident, I found this book. I know that there are skulls in Uppsala. This book describes pure so called race biology.

Ok, this is all for now. According to me, Swedish government should pay attention to integration of North and South of Sweden. But, of course, the history, if they know, is not so much to be proud of. However, to continue in life, difficult tasks must be dealt with to move further.
All the best

Anna
