Suomen politiikassa on viime vuosina vakiintunut käsitys, että meillä olisi joku erillinen maahanmuuttokysymys, joka olisi ratkaistava. Termi on rasististen oikeistopuolueiden lanseeraama ja media on tarttunut siihen hanakasti. Meillä on tahoja, jotka pelkäävät suomalaisten ”sekoittuvan” muihin ”rotuihin” ja menettävän kansalliset erikoispiirteet. Tämän nojalla halutaan estää maahanmuutto sellaisista maista, joiden väestö eroaa ulkonäöltään ”perinteisistä suomalaisista”. Erottelua perustellaan

How the media frames non-white Finns. Shameful.
It isn’t difficult to conclude that many of the stories of how the media frames non-white Finns proves over and over again that they are part of Finland’s racism problem. The Finnish Institute of Health and Welfare (THL) published Thursday its findings of a comprehensive study on native-born Finnish children with one or two foreign-born

If you had the opportunity to listen inside the brain of a Perussuomalaiset (PS)* politician, you’d probably hear the following word: migrants, maahanmuuttajat, migrants, maahanmuuttajat… The head of the PS parliamentary group, Ville Tavio, regurgetates that obsessive word in countless tweets and statements. Tavio tweets: “Finnish human rights are threatened as a result of massive

Perussuomalainen kansanedustaja, Kristian “Sheikki” Laakso, kysyy kuka on “aito” suomalainen. Onko “Sheikki” ns. aito suoalainen nimi? Sheikki on henkilö, joka on Koraanin asiantuntija. Sheikki on sama kun imaami. Miten voit kutsua itseä “Sheikki”-nimellä jos vihat muslimeja kuten puolueesi, Perussuomalaiset? Sinun selitykset aito suomalaisuudesta ovat sekavia ja naurettavia. Muista yksi asia, Kristian Laakso: Ihmiset päättävät keitä

We read about Joy Aalto, a Perussuomalaiset (PS)* party member, who gave us 1 + 1 = 2 advice on becoming a Finn. If such a simplistic recipe for integration – learn Finnish and get a job – worked for her, that is fine, although I have my doubts. Before reading on, this post is

THE STORY WAS UPDATED Having taught many students about Finnish society for many years, two matters surprise me about this teaching line: Are the people giving these courses qualified and simple, 1 + 1 = 2, explanations to a complex matter as adaption. If the integration model is overly simplistic, treat it with tweezers because

The hate and fear of communism, especially to the end of World War 2, was the smoking gun that led to unimaginable crimes against humanity like the Holocaust. It also led to strange bedfellows alliances. Thus the fear of communism gave you carte blanche to throw away your morals and even align yourself with evil.

THE STORY WAS UPDATED There is one clear message from the tweets and picture below with Perussuomalaiset (PS)* MPs Jussi Halla-aho, Mike Niikko, Vilhelm Junnila and Veikko Vallin: THEY LOVE TRUMP. How could the PS fall for a man like outgoing US President Donald Trump who has no respect for the rule of law (unless
