Spaces between Us: Queer Settler Colonialism and Indigenous Decolonization by Scott Lauria Morgensen

“Explores the intimate relationship of non-Native and Native sexual politics in the United States. Explaining how relational distinctions of “Native” and “settler” define the status of being “queer,” this book argues that modern queer subjects emerged among Natives and non-Natives by engaging the meaningful difference indigeneity makes within a settler society.”
