Journal Article
This Land is Your Land, This Land is My Land
2024
Overview
This article takes aim at the discursive separation of immigrant and Indigenous justice by assessing the viability of strategic essentialism, a strategy used historically by Asian American groups to orchestrate coalitional moments with First Nations in the continental and offshore United States. Presented in two sections, the article begins by examining the valency of equivalence rhetoric adopted by Asian American activist newspaper Gidra (1969–1974) in bolstering support for 1970s Indigenous occupations of Alcatraz and Wounded Knee on traditional Ohlone (California) and Oglala Lakota land (South Dakota). The article then extends discussion of strategic essentialism to offshore solidarity between Asian Americans and Native Hawai’ians realized under the auspices of an essentialized “localist” identity amid the mid-1970s Palaka Power movement.
