Description

In this updated and revised version of the highly originaland much-needed book, Clare Land interrogates the often fraught endeavours ofactivists from colonial backgrounds seeking to be politically supportive ofIndigenous struggles.

Blending key theoretical and practical questions, Landargues that the predominant impulses which drive middle-class settler activiststo support Indigenous people cannot lead to successful alliances and meaningfulsocial change unless they are significantly transformed through a process ofboth public political action and critical self-reflection. This edition explores an explicit definition ofdecolonization, along with a discussion of the development of Indigenousphilosophies of decolonization; a discussion of fragility and settler futurity;and a more substantive discussion of solidarity by people of colour.

It willalso include a reflection on the pedagogy of solidarity politics; the book'sauthorship; and the ways in which DecolonizingSolidarity (the first edition) has enabled a further and deeper set ofconcerns to be raised.

Based on a wealth of in-depth, original research, and focussingin particular on Australia, where - despite strident challenges - the vestigesof British law and cultural power have restrained the nation's emergence out ofcolonizing dynamics, Decolonizing Solidarity (second edition) provides a vitalresource for those involved in Indigenous activism and scholarship.
