Inter/Nationalism: Decolonizing Native America and Palestine
By Steven Salaita
(Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 2016)
Steven Salaita argues that American Indian and Indigenous studies must be more central to the scholarship and activism focusing on Palestine. His discussion includes a fascinating inside account of the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement; a wide range of Native poetry; the speeches of U.S. President Andrew Jackson; and the discourses of "shared values" between the United States and Israel.
Steven Salaita is author of several books, including Uncivil Rites: Palestine and the Limits of Academic Freedom and Israel’s Dead Soul. He edited Modern Arab American Fiction: A Reader's Guide, which was a 2012 Arab American Book Award Honorable Mention.
