This chapter considers how persons of color who are not primarily identified as either Indigenous to this land or of African descent have been incorporated into the American settler state, and the roles they play within it. It looks at how various groups have been included by virtue of territorial expansion, immigration, and the granting of refugee status. It also examines their exclusion through the racialization of citizenship and immigration laws to ensure a predominantly White population. This history allows us to understand how, even today, the settler class is intent on constructing a labor force that is “othered” in the interest of keeping its low-wage workers both accessible and disposable.

There is no blueprint for the decolonization of a settler colonial state. To the extent that racial subordination is rooted in and perpetuates colonial relationships of domination and subordination, its eradication will require us to imagine how we can implement the right of all peoples to self-determination. This chapter suggests that the process will involve independent understandings of state, nation, and identity; the development of strategies to empower our communities; and engagement with or support of grassroots movements for self-determination.
