@indigenousaction Podcast Ep. 17: #Decolonization isn’t a Holiday

Rejecting Indigenous Peoples’ Day of Tokenism

Hosts Klee & Bonn talk w some awesome guests & revisit our 2017 ‘zine “Uprooting Colonialism: The Limitations of #IndigenousPeoplesDay .” We dig into the questions, “How do whitewashed celebrations of Indigenous Peoples Day undermine decolonization?” & “What does it mean to be an anti-colonial abolitionist?”

Guests:
Amrah Salomón J. is a writer, artist, activist, and educator of Mexican, O’odham and Tohono O’odham, and European ancestry.

From the 2017 ‘zine: “…if the state dismantles these statues & proclaims Indigenous Peoples’ Days, what do we actually achieve if the structures & systems rooted in colonial violence remain intact? Is it merely political posturing or window dressing to diminish liberatory agitations? Our senses are heightened as most re-brandings of Columbus Day into IPD appear to whitewash ongoing colonial legacies… If the goal is for Indigenous autonomy, liberation of the land, people, & other beings, then why plead with our oppressors to merely acknowledge or recognize our existence?…Indigenous Peoples’ Day, as a process of collusion with occupying state forces, risks becoming a colonial patriotic ritual more than anything that amounts to liberation.”
