I Emailed The Sámi Culture Professor Who Worked On Frozen 2

The emails are long, so let me quickly explain the context first. About two months ago in the Frozen fandom there was a lot of discussion about the Northuldra and how accurate their character designs were. Specifically people wondered why Iduna looked so different from the other Northuldra, how much input the Sámi community had in F2, etc. So I decided to email one of the members of the Sámi Advisory group (Professor Veli-Pekka Lehtola) and ask!!!!

My question - Were the Sámi really as diverse as Frozen 2 depicts them (conscerning skin color and other characteristics)?

Answer - Yes. The Sámi come in many different, diverse groups, and while some may be considered "white", there are very real and valid darker skinned Sámi.

He not only answered this question, but gave me many fun facts about Sami history, the writing process/collaboration with Disney, and lots of other stuff like reindeer circles, herding dogs, and even a cut storylines!!!!! Which you can read all about in the screenshots below ->
