A lecture by Troy Storfjell, Associate Professor of Norwegian and Scandinavian Studies, Pacific Lutheran University, and Guest Researcher at the University of Troms??, Norway

Dr. Storfjell research focuses on the indigenous S??mi people and the circumpolar arctic, on Nordic colonialisms, and on contemporary Norwegian literature and Nordic film. He is
especially interested in how we are positioned by prevailing ideologies to support the power dynamics of the status quo, and in finding ways to expose this process in the hopes of opening up space for resistance.
