Description
Da FN kom til verden i 1945 oven på Anden Verdenskrig, pålagde det internationale samfund lande at give deres kolonier selvstændighed. Det betød, at Danmark skulle forlade Grønland. Det skete bare aldrig, og skiftende regeringerførte gennem 40erne og 50erne både grønlænderne og FN bag lyset for at bevare Grønland som en del af Danmark. Det gik hårdt ud over både den grønlandske kultur, det grønlandske sprog og ikke mindst de grønlandske børn. IMPERIETS BØRN fortæller for første gang den dramatiske og opsigtsvækkende historie om et af de mørkeste kapitler i dansk kolonihistorie og går tæt, hvad der skete, da politikere og embedsmænd besluttede at fordanske Grønland og gøre øen til en dansk landsdel. Det skete bl.a. ved at skjule sandheden om FNs retningslinjer for grønlænderne, ved at gå imod danske topjuristers klare anbefalinger og ved at skabe en række reformer, der skulle gøre grønlænderne mere danske. Fortællingen om IMPERIETS BØRN er blevet til efter omfattende research i Rigsarkivet og Folketingets bibliotek i København, i FNs arkiver i New York samt rejser i Grønland. Bogen er derfor også fyldt med øjenvidne beretninger fra grønlændere, der oplevede danskernes insisteren på at gøre de arktiske folk danske.
