Beschreibung
Land is key to the operations of coloniality, but the power of the land is also the key anticolonial force that grounds Indigenous liberation. As a foundation of valuing, land in a material, conceptual, and ontological sense forms the framework for a conceptualization of Indigenous environmental ethics as an anticolonial force for sovereign Indigenous futures. This text breaks significant ground in articulating Indigenous ways of knowing and valuing to Western philosophy--not as artifact that Western philosophy can incorporate into its canon, but rather as a force of anticolonial Indigenous liberation. Ultimately, Indigenizing philosophy through the Land shines light on a possible road for epistemically, ontologically, and morally sovereign Indigenous futures.
