« Possibly, but lamenting settler colonialism without knowing them is like trying to overcome capitalism without referencing the bourgeoisie: Amy Fung, ‘Is Settler Colonialism Just Another Study of Whiteness?’ Canadian Ethnic Studies, 53, 2, 2021, pp. 115-131
Decolonising the blue spaces occupied by settler colonialism: Meg Parsons, Karen Fisher, Roa Petra Crease, Decolonising Blue Spaces in the Anthropocene: Freshwater management in Aotearoa New Zealand, Palgrave, 2021 »

The settlers claims vs. the indigenous ones: Jacqueline Keeler, Standoff: Standing Rock, the Bundy Movement, and the American Story of Sacred Lands, Torrey House Press, 2021

29May21

Description: The Bundy takeover of Oregon’s Malheur Wildlife Refuge and the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe’s standoff against an oil pipeline in North Dakota are two sides of the same story that created America and its deep-rooted cultural conflicts. Through a compelling comparison of conflicting beliefs and legal systems, Keeler explores whether the West has really been won—and for whom.
