The hosts examine the federal Indian law trust doctrine as a euphemism for a relationship of domination rather than protection.
In this conversation, Peter and I examine why the word trust should not be accepted at face value. The episode asks how fear is produced by domination and what fearlessness requires when legal language disguises control as care.
I am sharing this episode here because it belongs with my wider work on the language of domination, Christian discovery, federal Indian law, and the continuing reality of Original Nations' free existence. Each conversation in Domination Chronicles is another way into that inquiry.
