Boozhoo!

Shaawano niindigo.  Makwa nindoodem.  Gaawaabaabiganikaag indoonjibaa, idash Cayuga ishkoniganing indaa.  Miigwech mawidishiyeg!

The menu at left has links to my academic activities, artistic work, political commentary, and Ojibwemowin resources.

My book, music, and film reviews are written from the perspective of an Indigenous scholar, and may include commentary on how I use the materials for teaching.

 

Ojibwemowin

Ninga-kagwejitoon ji ojibwemoyaanomaa.  Niin sa bangi eta go ninita-ojibwem.

I will try using Ojibwe here.  I only know how to speak Ojibwe a little bit.  My teachers have been Delores Wakefield, Collins OakGrove, Tony Treuer, Pebaamibines Dennis Jones, Gwayakogaabow Rick Gresczyk, Naawigiizis Jim Clark, Tobasonakwut Peter Kelly, Naabekwaa Adrian Liberty, David Bissonette, Waawaakeyaash Keller Paap, Nancy Jones, Larry "Amik" Smallwood, and Ojibwemowin Zagaswe'iding in Minneapolis.

Rhymes for Young Deadpool

 
 

Tweet

 

This was presented at the 2019 Native American Literature Symposium at Mystic Lake Casino on March 10, 2019. It is a "Red Reading" of Deadpool 2, done in honor of and in incomplete collaboration with my wife, Dr. Carol Warrior, who passed away a few weeks after we saw the film. This essay reflects some of our many conversations about the film, which started when she asked on our way home from the theater, "How was that not just Rhymes for Young Ghouls in reverse?" Spoilers ahead for Deadpool 2, Rhymes for Young Ghouls, Hunt for the Wilderpeople, and possibly Boy.

 

We love our NALS family.

 

My attendance to NALS 2019 was generously supported by the American Indian and Indigenous Studies Program at Cornell University.

Academics

I received my PhD in Anthropology in 2012 from the University of Iowa.  I did my undergraduate work at the University of Minnesota.  I have taught at Bowdoin College in Maine, the University of Victoria in British Columbia, The Evergreen State College in Washington, the University of Washington, and Cornell University in New York.

Please note, nothing on this site should be construed as representative of any of my current or past institutional affiliations.

My research areas are: Indigenous language revitalization, language and identity, American cultural studies, language ideologies, American Indian sovereignty, critical theory, Native American studies, and coloniality.

I am also known for applying Indigenous critical theory to zombie films and literature.
