Description

Bringing together the fields of critical Indigenous studies and memory studies, this important book features contributions from both Indigenous peoples and Indigenous studies scholars from around the world for the first sustained look at the field of Critical Indigenous Memory Studies.

Showcasing some of the most exciting new work being done in this interdisciplinary area, essays look at topics like the intellectual and critical genealogy of Indigenous Memory Studies found in Critical Indigenous Studies rather than the field of Memory Studies; the roles that land, orality, writing, art, literature, and language play in Indigenous people's memory and modes of remembering; and the constraints and effects of ongoing colonial and settler colonial violences on Indigenous people's memory and memorial processes.

Focusing on the social, cultural, political, spiritual, historical, and ecological effects of memory, this landmark collection provides robust critiques of all facets of settler colonialism while intervening in its logics by centering Indigenous peoples and knowledges.
