M. NourbeSe Philip's book-length poem, Zong!, while seemingly focused on a particular catastrophe which occurred in 1781 aboard the slave ship Zong, is also a metonymy for the entirety of the trans-Atlantic slave trade and its legacy. Philip's book (written with the guidance of the voice of the ancestors Setaey Adamu Boateng) is an attempt to retrieve the voices of the drowned, unnamed slaves. It makes its difficult – almost impossible – poems from out of the words of the court case between the owners and the insurers of the ship. Through Zong!, a poem which remembers and grieves the unnamed African victims of the Zong, Philip asks if and how it is possible to make meaning of the suffering of the past, and even to heal. In tracing and retracing these questions, the poem goes beyond grief to become a work of prophetic annunciation, both joining and disjointing “the visionary company.”

ABSTRACTEpistemic disobedience (Mignolo) to settler-coloniality in Canada requires conscientisation to Indigenous peoples’ stories and a decolonial turn (Maldonado-Torres) in epistemology and ontology of relations (Tinker) between Indigenous and settler peoples. One group of primarily settler Christians on unceded and unsurrendered Algonquin/Anishnaabe territory engaged such a praxis, through Right Relations with their United Church in Ottawa, toward social healing (Lederach and Lederach) of colonial wounds, transformationally engaging in oral-aural praxis to relationally receive hi/stories of local Indigenous communities. Stan McKay, Cree elder and former moderator of the United Church of Canada, through Indigenous peoples’ understanding of creation invites a decolonial turn with hermeneutical listening in which one hears teachings of Jesus as cry of creation – such that even “the stones cry out” (Luke 19:40) and the trees teach – which has implications for a settler theology of aurality.KEYWORDS: Colonialityindigenoussettlersettler colonialismdecolonial healingUnited Churchliberation theology Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 Engel and Lippert, “Nayaano-nibiimaang,” map.2 Simpson, “Looking after Gdoo-naaganinaa,” 36–37.3 Simpson, Dancing on Our Turtle’s Back, FN 10, 14.4 White, “Battle to Save a Mighty Old Oak Succeeds”.

ABSTRACTMany migrant Muslims to “conquistador settler-colonial” U.S./Canada are driven to become good – settlers because of the devastating imperialist conditions reaped upon our original homelands. However, no Muslim political-theological works address Indigenous struggles or seriously engage settler-colonial studies. Migrant Muslims assume that the U.S./Canada are democratic-secular despite their animation by white-supremacist religious doctrines as Manifest Destiny. This contribution addresses the Qur’anic bases for a globally applicable decolonial, anti-statist/capitalist, social justice, Islam or what I refer to as Anarcha-Islam Drawing on the Qur’anic perspective of ethical-political responsibilities of Muslim hijra (migration), I argue how non-Black migrant Muslims in exile must seriously re-examine their ethical-political commitments and construct mutual alliances with Indigenous and Black peoples in their demands for land’s repatriation as well as reparations.KEYWORDS: Islamdecolonizationabolitionsettlers of colorTurtle IslandPalestinesocial movements Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 Jacobs Technion-Cornell University website: https://tech.cornell.edu/jacobs-technion-cornell-institute/; Hudson, “Cornell NYC Tech’s Alarming Ties to the Israeli Occupation”.2 College Foreign Gift and Contract Report: https://sites.ed.gov/foreigngifts/.3 Koch, “The Desert as Laboratory,” 498.4 The Cherokee and the other Five Civilized Tribes which included the Creek, Choctaw, Chickasaw, Cherokee, and Seminole resisted the act.

Since 1934 the landholdings have slowly increased to 56,000,000 acres.5 Koch, “The Desert As Laboratory,” 498.Geiger, The History of American Higher Education, 303–304; Kloppenburg, First the Seed.6 Newman, From Bakunin to Lacan, 99.7 Yang, A Third University is Possible; examples of autonomous schools include the Zapatista inspired Universidad de la Tierra /Unitierra (University of the Earth) in Chiapas and Oaxaca, Mexico.8 Gopal, “On Decolonisation and the University,” 873–899; Bhambra, Gebrial and Nişancıoğlu, Decolonising the University; Thomas and Jivraj, eds., Towards Decolonising the University; Grosfoguel, Velasquez, and Hernandez, Decolonizing the Westernized University.9 See https://nikolehannahjones.com.

ABSTRACTThis paper is an attempt to identify what is unique about the political theology of Zionism. It also explores what the consequences of this uniqueness might be, particularly with regard to future decolonization projects of Israel-Palestine. Dealing with the case of Zionism and Israel is interesting because it allows us – in fact, it forces us – to ask questions about the nature of modernity, liberalism, secularism, colonialism and nationalism writ large. Zionism itself combines many aspects of modern Europe, including nationalism, colonialism, religion, liberalism, and socialism; this raises the question of whether we can offer a critique of Zionism that is not also a critique of the modern Europe that invented all of these categories and practices. All these issues raise the question of how we are to judge Zionism. Can we offer a critique of Zionism that is not at the same time a critique of Europe?KEYWORDS: ReligionZionismnationalismpolitical theologyPalestinesecularizationdecolonization Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 See Yakobson and Rubinstein, Israel and the Family; and Sapir and Statman, Religion and State in Israel.2 See in general: Friling, “What Those Who Claim Zionism,” 848–872; Shapira, “The Debate Over New Historians in Israel,” 888–909; Lissak, “‘Critical Sociologists and Establishment Sociologists,” 84–108; and Aronson, “Settlement in Eretz Israel,” 217.3 For example, see Massad, “The Persistence of the Palestinian Question.” See also Zureik’s early work on the subject deploying the colonial frame in Palestinians in Israel, and his updated and extended approach in Israel’s Colonial Project in Palestine. For early approaches that locate Zionism within a global colonial and imperial frame see Trabulsi, “The Palestine Problem,” 53–90.4 See Rouhana, “Religious Claims and Nationalism in Zionism,” 54–87 and Shalhoub-Kevorkian, “Sacralised Politics,” 134–158. Both writers stress to some extent the unique case of Zionism and the difficulty in reaching a secular politics that can lead to the decolonization of Palestine.5 See my paper “Notes on the Value of Theory – Readings,” 1–44.6 In this regard, I clearly agree with Rouhana and Kevorkian’s critique of Zionism, though I differ in my level of belief in western liberal democracies and universal values.7 Derrida, for example, critiques Zionism in this way. Zionism, he argues, is just another example of identity politics. But are all identity politics the same and as bad as each other? See Raef Zreik, “Rights Respect and the Political: Notes from a Conflict Zone” in Living Together: Jacques Derrida’s Communities of Violence and Peace ed. Elisabeth Weber.8 On this distinction, see Brubaker, Nationalism and Citizenship and Plamenatz, “Two Types of Nationalism,” 22.

Zionism itself combines many aspects of modern Europe, including nationalism, colonialism, religion, liberalism, and socialism; this raises the question of whether we can offer a critique of Zionism that is not also a critique of the modern Europe that invented all of these categories and practices. All these issues raise the question of how we are to judge Zionism. Can we offer a critique of Zionism that is not at the same time a critique of Europe?KEYWORDS: ReligionZionismnationalismpolitical theologyPalestinesecularizationdecolonization Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 See Yakobson and Rubinstein, Israel and the Family; and Sapir and Statman, Religion and State in Israel.2 See in general: Friling, “What Those Who Claim Zionism,” 848–872; Shapira, “The Debate Over New Historians in Israel,” 888–909; Lissak, “‘Critical Sociologists and Establishment Sociologists,” 84–108; and Aronson, “Settlement in Eretz Israel,” 217.3 For example, see Massad, “The Persistence of the Palestinian Question.” See also Zureik’s early work on the subject deploying the colonial frame in Palestinians in Israel, and his updated and extended approach in Israel’s Colonial Project in Palestine.

Both writers stress to some extent the unique case of Zionism and the difficulty in reaching a secular politics that can lead to the decolonization of Palestine.5 See my paper “Notes on the Value of Theory – Readings,” 1–44.6 In this regard, I clearly agree with Rouhana and Kevorkian’s critique of Zionism, though I differ in my level of belief in western liberal democracies and universal values.7 Derrida, for example, critiques Zionism in this way. Zionism, he argues, is just another example of identity politics. But are all identity politics the same and as bad as each other?

ABSTRACTThis article considers how ongoing Palestinian dispossession, manifold Nakbas (catastrophes), stemming from the active frontiers of Israeli settler colonialism and catalyzed by religious nationalism and international impunity, continues to extend and expand the Palestinian diaspora into the Americas and other regions. This also structures Palestinian personhood beyond the active space of the settler-colony. I utilize three seemingly disparate cases to make this argument. I begin with Israel’s military onslaught on Gaza in May 2021. I then offer a personal account, followed by ethnographic research conducted with Palestinian Iraq War refugees resettled in Brazil and also examine other military conflicts in the Middle East that have resulted in continual forced Palestinian displacements. Throughout, I demonstrate how Israeli settler colonialism is not an event but a structure (Wolfe. Settler Colonialism and the Transformation of Anthropology: The Politics and Poetics of an Ethnographic Event. London: Cassell, 1999) which impacts Palestinian life far outside of the original space of displacement.KEYWORDS: Manifold NakbasPalestinesettler colonialismdispossessiondiasporasrefugees Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 Majid, “Even Fish Not Spared of Israeli.”2 HRW, “A Threshold Crossed: Israeli Authorities.”3 Ibid.4 Ibid.5 Sayegh, “Zionist Colonialism in Palestine (1965),” 217.

摘要本文探讨了以色列殖民主义的活跃边界以及宗教民族主义和国际有罪不罚的催化下，正在进行的巴勒斯坦人被剥夺，多种Nakbas(灾难)，如何继续扩展和扩大巴勒斯坦侨民到美洲和其他地区。这也使巴勒斯坦人的人格超越了定居者-殖民地的活动空间。我利用三个看似不相干的案例来论证这一观点。首先是以色列在2021年5月对加沙的军事攻击。然后，我提供了一个个人的描述，接着是对重新安置在巴西的巴勒斯坦伊拉克战争难民进行的人种学研究，并研究了中东地区导致巴勒斯坦人不断被迫流离失所的其他军事冲突。在整个过程中，我展示了以色列定居者殖民主义不是一个事件，而是一个结构(沃尔夫)。移民殖民主义与人类学的转型:一个民族志事件的政治与诗学。伦敦:卡塞尔，1999)，它影响了巴勒斯坦人的生活，远远超出了原来的流离失所的空间。关键词:流民nakbasler巴勒斯坦定居者殖民主义剥夺者流散难民披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。马吉德，“连以色列的鱼也不放过。”人权观察，“跨越门槛:以色列当局”。3同上4同上5 Sayegh，“巴勒斯坦的犹太复国主义殖民主义(1965)”，第217页。这些抗议经久不衰，并以不同的形式出现。例如，在“洗粉”中，以色列被宣传为一个同性恋者的避风港，而在其他方面，中东是一个危险而恶毒的同性恋者。然而，同性恋巴勒斯坦人却一直被排除在外同上7我从社会学家莱西·阿布雷戈和塞西莉亚Menjívar那里借用了这个词，他们追溯了美国司法系统通过将其纳入法律来使其对无证移民的虐待合法化的各种方式。“法律暴力”允许在生活的三个重要领域:家庭、工作和学校中使用物质和精神暴力，“移民通过这些领域体验到法律的影响”(1384)。害怕因被驱逐出境而与家人分离;忍受困难，有时是虐待的工作条件而不报告，因为害怕被发现是无证件的;失去继续接受教育的希望，因为没有合法身份，获得资助的可能性很小Abrego和Menjívar， "法律暴力"9 Sayegh，“巴勒斯坦的犹太复国主义殖民主义(1965)”，218.10 Wolfe，“定居者殖民主义与人类学的转变”。11犹太复国主义运动的创始人Theodor Herzl声称，巴勒斯坦的犹太复国主义者将“形成欧洲对抗亚洲的一部分壁垒，一个与野蛮相对立的文明前哨”(Herzl, 1988，引自Erakat, 2019, 28)Wolfe，“定居者殖民主义与消除”，388.13 Sayegh，“巴勒斯坦的犹太复国主义殖民主义(1965)”，207.14同上。15 Shihab Nye，“圣地将会有和平。”" 16同上，44.17 "迪拜佳士得拍卖标志性的贾马尔·马哈梅尔二世。"新旧物件的显著区别之一是将圆球系在搬运工头上的领带。最初的作品有一根编织的绳子，搬运工指出这很容易滑倒。因此，一根扁平的绳子会更精确，类似于旧城的搬运工搬运重物时所使用的绳子Shihab Nye，“圣地将会有和平”，44.19在Jardim的“Os immigrants palestinos na amacriica Latina”，具体见172-3.20 Baeza，“Les palestens d ' american Latine”;Munem和Hamid，《巴西散居的巴勒斯坦社区》。《21希拉勒》，西岸和加沙的阶级转型。" 22巴西移民法要求健康和识字证明:1945年8月27日颁布的第7.967号法律"也门危机"。可能还有其他更广泛的抵制沙特阿拉伯的理由，但这不在本文的范围内“2020年朝觐:经济影响。[25]伍尔夫，“移民殖民主义与原住民的消灭”，《联合国大会》，第388.26期，第11期。“决定应允许希望返回家园并与邻国和平共处的难民尽早这样做，并对那些选择不返回的人的财产以及根据国际法或公平原则应由负责任的政府或当局赔偿的财产损失或损坏给予赔偿。https://www.securitycouncilreport.org/un-documents/document/ip-ares-194.php.27联合国人道主义事务协调办公室，2014年敌对行动的关键人物。“28”加沙海滩轰炸。29、内塔尼亚胡:以色列寻求“可持续的宁静”。30沃尔夫:《移民殖民主义与转型》，第2期。
