The Afternoon Symposium on Empire and Indigeneity addresses the issue of solidarities and connections between Native Americans and Arab and Muslim Americans given that the settler colonial state attempts to circumscribe POC-Indigenous solidarity.
The symposium critically approaches the political economy of knowledge production and the stakes of ethnography, history, disciplinarity, materiality, and genre, questioning how settler epistemology continues to shape Middle East Studies as a US based field.
