Terrapolitics in the Dawnland: Relationality, Resistance, and Indigenous Futures in the Native and Colonial Northeast

This essay re-examines Wampanoag and Anglo-American relationships by focusing on a post-King Philip's War land negotiation document. Using the concept of "terrapolitics," it argues for the significance of expansive place-based relationships for Wampanoag communities and the challenges posed by English settler colonialism in the seventeenth century.
