"Indigenous relations are often described in anthropological terms, or as expressions of timeless, unchanging kinship ties. In Speculative Relations, Joseph M. Pierce focuses on the speculative possibilities of relations to enact a reparative mode of critique. Working at the intersections of Cherokee thinking, Indigenous queer theory, literary and cultural studies, and art criticism, Pierce illuminates pathways for understanding and resisting the damages of colonialism, while also pointing to future worlds and imaginaries that enliven Indigenous thought and practice. Speculative Relations offers a new methodology for approaching Indigenous art and culture, revealing how gestures, poetics, and embodiment can uphold tradition, while also harnessing the imaginative capacities of speculation to reimagine what future worlds are possible"-- Provided by publisher.
