Denmark and Greenland: Time to debate colonial history
Arctic360 Board Member Nauja Bianco, CEO for the Greenlandic House and the North Atlantic House in Odense, Denmark, spoke to Courthouse News about the upcoming Danish Documentary: “The Story of Denmark and Greenland — For Good and Bad.”
According to Bianco, ‘‘it is about time to put our history up for open debate’….’I have always been surprised by how little we know about each other. Even today, prejudices and misconceptions still exist about how Greenlanders are,’ Bianco, who was born and raised in Greenland to a Greenlandic father and Danish mother, said. ‘I am very happy with the new coverage because we get a common platform to discuss from. We need nuances and insights.’’
