Settler Colonialism: An Introduction w/ Sai Englert
Sai Englert speaks in this session recorded at Socialism 2024. This session was sponsored by Pluto Press.
Rich with their unique histories, characteristics, and social relations, Indigenous struggles across the world are connected by the shared enemy they face: settler colonialism. In this session, Sai Englert argues that settler colonial forms of domination and accumulation played a central role in the emergence of capitalism, and remain crucial in its reproduction and stabilisation today. Defeating settler colonialism is therefore also key to destroying the capitalist system as a whole.
