After Frozen came out, some people were really up in arms that everyone in the Scandinavian movie was white, and said they should have included some Sami people for POC. A lot of people whining about certain aspects of Frozen had their heads firmly lodged up their own asses.

They don't realize how few Sami people there actually are in Scandinavia I gather? Also if we are gonna be really specific about it, it isn't like they are the only indigenous people in Scandinavia.

I haven't actually seen frozen tho, so I can't comment on the film in particular, but it is my history and country they are complaining about, and if they are gonna do that, do it right!

Sami have actually said that they don't consider themselves 'white' or 'POC' because that's not a thing in their countries but no one listens because yay American centrism.

I can't speak for everyone off course, but mostly nonSami people in those countries don't consider or describe themselves as white either, we describe ourself by which county we come from*, or alternatively which country we are from. I wouldn't describe myself as white, I would say I am Norwegian on the internet or to noNorwegians, and as a Trønder to anyone from Norway. That is what I am, that is what we care and classify each other by. Which is probably because we are some really white countries.** And that is what we are classified as in surveys, which county (or city) we are from, age and level of income/education.

*Might be a specifically Norwegian thing, we have really huge differences between dialects from country to county. With its own unique stereotypes and at times slight discrimination.
**It is a more complicated matter for immigrants, and so on. We are not immune to racism at all.
