Mari Boine (born Mari Brit Randi Boine, 8 November 1956) is a Norwegian Sámi singer. She combined a form of Sámi joik singing with rock. In 2008, she became a professor of musicology at Nesna University College.
== Biography ==
Mari Boine was born and raised in Gámehisnjárga, a village on the river Anarjohka in Karasjok Municipality, Finnmark county, Norway.
Boine’s parents were Sámi who made their living from salmon fishing and farming. She grew up steeped in the natural environment of Sápmi, but also amidst the strict Laestadian Christian movement with discrimination against her people: for example, singing in the traditional Sami joik style was considered “the devil’s work”. The local school Boine attended reflected a very different world from her family’s. All the teaching was in Norwegian.
=== Anti-racism ===
As Boine grew up, she started to rebel against the prejudiced attitude of being an inferior “Lappish” woman in Norwegian society. For instance, the booklet accompanying the CD Leahkastin (Unfolding) is illustrated with photographs with racist captions like “Lapps report for anthropological measurement”, “Typical female Lapp”, “A well-nourished Lapp”; and it ends with a photo of Boine herself as a girl, captioned “Mari, one of the rugged Lapp-girl types” and attributed “(Photo: Unidentified priest)”.
