A Longstanding Tradition of Racial Violence
Episode description
Cheryl Redhorse Bennett, former assistant professor in American Indian Studies and expert on hate crimes and violence against Native Americans, joins the podcast to discuss her book "Our Fight Has Just Begun: Hate Crimes and Justice in Native America." She shares about the hate crimes in Farmington, New Mexico that informed her research, how the Navajo Nation pursues justice when the white legal system fails them, and how violence in reservation border towns dates back to initial settler colonial violence that resulted in mass deaths and displacement of indigenous people.
