    Just an observation, made with sadness, about no particular paper or panel or session. #shax2021 But I have to say: I am so very, very tired & sad about the continual marginalization, erasure of an entire, vibrant twinned field of Critical Indigenous Studies & Native Studies. 1/n

        No one asked me to take on this kuleana, this responsibility & right, to hold space for, to scold others about the continual erasure of Native scholars’ multi-disciplinary writing, debating, thinking in & out of the academy in the midst of EM lit studies’ new attempts w/ WSC. 2/n

        And yet to not remark refusals to study these robust fields or the cherry-picking & appropriation of works from here & there in CIS/NS wld constitute an act of slf-violence & self-cultural violence that I will not do. This makes me the nag, the scold...and easy to dismiss. 3/n

        If scholars at #Shax2021 do not think that CIS & NS are academic fields worthy of scholarly engagement, then you are not doing the work well. If you invoke “settler colonial studies” w/out engaging “Indigenous studies,“ you are making a racialized & colonizing choice. 4/n

        To continue to insist on the lack of “Native sources“ or archives w/ which to work, while at the same time dropping terms like “Indigenous people,” “Indians” or ”Natives” as objects of knowledge is to ignore SO MUCH work by Native historians expanding source-bases in history. 5/n

        To think that talking about Native histories through the endless recirculation of white, “Western” knowlege categories/ontology & epistemological constructs somehow is emancipatory is naive, REcolonizing, extractive in your professional career, and not innocently erasing. 6/n

        Putting language, language attentiveness, fluency, politics, & critique at the center of work is what we in EM Lit Studies do, right? #Shax2021 Why exceptionalism when it comes to requiring such labor, such standards when it comes to submitting to Indigneous scholalrly rigor? 7/n

        As a kanaka scholar/intellectual, enduring this continual erasure because non-Natives refuse to submit to the learning (& quiet) position in ORDER to learn, to refuse continuing participation in settler colonialism, is just mindboggling. This need not be, even in EM studies 8/n

        To not engage in CIS & NS allows EM scholars to continue to objectify “us” as outsiders, to continue to imagine “us” as naturals, “nature” & “environment” as objects, and to portray our interventions as a gift or grant of place by colonial scholarship. 9/n

        This mirrors mainstream WSC popular thought that Native nations have been “given” sovereignty by the U.S. 10/n

        #Shax2021 needs to understand that we‘re not an item on the buffet of “perspectives.” This idea is extractive & erasing, fundamentally a WSC move, embedded in the settler knowledge practices. To decolonize requires a harder work of self-decentering. 1 way is to study CIS/NS. 11/n

        Nuff nag/scold for now. Hope some of you find your way to the fields of CIS/NS *as* fields. They‘re not without problems, blindnesses, scandals, & other failings. But like an Indigenous language, they are essential to engage fully if attempting work in good faith. #Shax2021 12/12

        Ok, I not pau yet #Shax2021, so here are some post-thread clarifications. If you are thinking, “But what is she talking about, I cited [X CIS scholar] and [Y cluster of Native scholars]? I didn’t erase.” This is my point: that practice is insufficient & colonized/ing. 13/12

        These scholars‘ work operate w/in fields of scholarship which both do & DO NOT answer to wyt settler colonial desires (academic industry demands). And if you can’t see these field(s) in a manner that allows you to really engage the fields’ debates, what are you doing??? 14/12

        That’s like citing Ian Smith w/out engaging his work in relation to the development by MANY scholars of #ShakeRace studies—work that builds explicitly, variably, contestingly on Black feminism, queer studies, CRS, post-Marxism, post-colonial studies, etc. 15/12

        Deferral or refusal to recognize the field-ness of CIS/NS—which includes continuing to not understand what I call the settler categorical redux of our multitudes, our placedness of knowledgeS, into a singular “The Indigenous”—is a refusal to start decolonizing. #Shax2021 16/12

        Tokenism is not the way. Self-defined sufficiency of reading, knowing, citing is not the way. Otherwise, this will continue to be a conflict that will deprive EM lit studies of us, of what could be, by re-entrenching only what WSC seeks: extraction for self-satisfaction. /pau
