Steve Newcomb (Shawnee/Lenape) and Peter d'Errico continue a decades-long conversation about Indigenous Peoples.

Their discussion includes the following topics and more:

  • Oyate Woyaka, the latest film project Steve has worked on, now showing on PBS, the story of Lakota language history, loss, and revitalization.

  • The claim of a “right of domination” inherent in US federal anti-Indian law since its founding in Johnson v. McIntosh

  • The foundation of legalized domination in 15th century papal bulls and similar “Christian Discovery” documents

  • How English terminology obscures domination behind common words

  • The relation of race and gender critiques to a theory of domination

  • How domination extends beyond human relations to the entire natural world
