***The narrative will be that the original Scandinavians were a peaceful people of color***
Much like the American Indian before the White Man arrived. Peaceful, got along well with other tribes. Did not scalp or torture. Did the Happy Dancewith each other. So we were taught all through the 1970s.
Then was found just the opposite. This is a very short list. I have many other links.

In the late 1960s, I knew Native Americans were NOT Peaceful. In 5th grade, we were told of King Philip’s War.
