Unsettling Colonial Automobilities explores the vehicle's role in
imposing colonialism on Indigenous people and proposes an
Indigenous automobility that reclaims sovereignty over place and
centricity. Based on extensive fieldwork within First Nations
communities, accounts from Indigenous scholars and activists in
Australia, New Zealand/Aotearoa, Canada and the United States, and
cinematic/literary representations, this contribution challenges
unrestricted mobility in modernity and highlights the vehicle's
impact on Indigenous communities. Chapters examine how Indigenous
people are criminalized for non-compliance with vehicle
regulations, explores the vehicle as a tool of racial violence, and
discusses how Indigenous communities utilize vehicles for
protection, cultural expression, and reconnection with their land.
By demonstrating the vehicle's involvement in colonial violence and
its potential for empowering Indigenous cultures, Unsettling
Colonial Automobilities acknowledges the significance of human
movement, migration, and boundary-transcendence in modern life
while acknowledging the dark history associated with these
phenomena.
