Early Indigenous Literatures

Conclusion

The texts compiled for this exhibit intended to showcase the multiple ways in which relationality is conceived, held, and contested by Black Indigenous people. An aesthetic inquiry into the modes of relation proves to be an intimate reading that factors the intersubjective means by which Blackness and Indigeneity is negotiated upon Black and Indigenous people, and accounts for the mundanity of these experiences. The worldmaking possibilities fostered in this process threads Indigeneity and Blackness not merely as identities, but also as social and racial formations that fundamentally destabilize liberal conceptions of individual identity.
