Queer Indigenous Feminism

The Red Nation’s “Queer Indigenous Feminism” is not a single argumentative essay but a politically situated reading and organizing resource. It defines queer Indigenous feminism through kinship and reciprocity, insisting that Indigenous kinship traditions do not exclude gender and sexual diversity.

The page matters for FemRes because it moves feminism away from a narrow liberal rights vocabulary and back into questions of land, sovereignty, collective relation, and anti-colonial struggle. It gathers statements, articles, books, podcasts, and films that show how Indigenous feminism responds at once to colonialism, capitalism, heteropatriarchy, racism, and gender discipline.

It also clarifies that queer politics cannot be reduced to visibility or legal recognition. In this framework, queer Indigenous feminism asks how colonial institutions reshape relations, how states, churches, property, and family norms reorganize kinship, and how communities remake care, desire, responsibility, and survival.

As a resource page, it is especially useful for readers entering Indigenous feminism, decolonial feminism, and queer Indigenous studies. It does not replace the primary texts it links to, but it offers a movement-curated path for connecting manifestos, theory, podcasts, and visual media.
