Since time before memory, large numbers of salmon have made their
way up and down the Klamath River. Indigenous management enabled
the ecological abundance that formed the basis of capitalist wealth
across North America. These activities on the landscape continue
today, although they are often the site of intense political
struggle. Not only has the magnitude of Native American genocide
been of remarkable little sociological focus, the fact that this
genocide has been coupled with a reorganization of the natural
world represents a substantial theoretical void. Whereas much
attention has (rightfully) focused on the structuring of
capitalism, racism and patriarchy, few sociologists have attended
to the ongoing process of North American colonialism. Salmon and
Acorns Feed Our People draws upon nearly two decades of examples
and insight from Karuk experiences on the Klamath River to
illustrate how the ecological dynamics of settler-colonialism are
essential for theorizing gender, race and social power today.
