Det här avsnittet av Platsens ande spelades i Porjus den 13 oktober 2020 inför publik. Här kan du lyssna på det publiksamtal som följde på samtalet mellan Elin Anna Labba och Kerstin Wixe.
Elin Anna Labba som skrivit den Augustnominerade boken Herrarna satte oss hit, som handlar om de tvångsförflyttningar av samer som påbörjades för 100 år sedan, tar oss till Porjus och Västra strand. I sin bok har Labba samlat berättelser, foton, brev och jojktexter som tillsammans bildar en kör av röster från de som inte längre kan berätta om detta mörka kapitel i historien om hur Sverige behandlat sin ursprungsbefolkning.
