Writing Belonging at the Millennium: Notes from the Field on Settler-Colonial Place by Emily Potter (2019)

History, Emily Potter proposes in Writing Belonging at the Millennium: Notes from the Field on Settler-Colonial Place , ‘does not end when we stop telling a particular story of a particular time’ (146). The stories sit right here, in the ground. As Potter shows, they radiate in unpredictable ways. They continue to mark the present no matter how colonial culture attempts to encyst narratives of Indigenous knowledge, cultural practice and unextinguished connection to Indigenous Country.
