Diversité des identités - Égalité des droits
Krista Oinonen

A diverse world isn’t a burden. Knowing and being proud of your roots makes you able to open your heart to others without feeling threatened. I stand strong enough to find joy in others being themselves, just as they are and want to be.

Josefina Skerk, Former Vice President of the Swedish Saami Parliament.
