McGhee Get Out of Our Country ( Megi Histalek Me'Artsenu ) Anti-Imperialism in Theory and Practice of 1950s Israeli Communism
The Israeli state’s territorial integrity have generally been associated with and attributed to the Zionist right. This article considers Israeli territorial nationalism from the perspective of the most radical critics of Zionism, Israeli Communists. Studying a plurality of cultural and political practices primarily from the early state period, ranging from ideological writing to street rallies and demonstrations against British and American offi…
On Amending the 1916 Migratory Birds Convention: Indigenous Reflections and Priorities
This article is the result of a collaboration between Philip Awashish, Eeyou leader, and anthropologist Jasmin Habib.

Shirat hano’ar h’kommunisti: Exploring the cultural dynamics and influence in the songs of Israeli-Jewish Communist youth in Palestine/Israel
Settler colonial projects are not only focused on the economy of a population and the formation of a settler state, they are also cultural undertakings whereby the settlers form their own settler culture. In this article, we explore the dynamics of Zionist settler culture from the point of view of its most radical critics, Jewish-Israeli Communists. We analyze the ways Zionist settler culture has been both absorbed and negated by BANKI (Young Isr…
Kommunist omed ve-shar (A Communist Stands and Sings): On Israel’s Ron Workers’ Choir
At first glance Jewish Israeli Communists and SLI (Songs of the Land of Israel) make strange bedfellows. Communist Party members would seem to be the last to sing songs that glorify the Land of Israel using Zionist tropes. Yet they did. Since the end of World War II, the Ron Workers’ Choir, which was affiliated with the Communist Party, sang SLI songs and performed on international stages in the Socialist Bloc and in Israel. This amateur choir, i…

Documenting Presence
This article presents us with a number of letters written by Eeyou that assert their autonomy and their relationships to Eeyou Istchee. The first set of letters were written in the 1930s and reveal not only the sovereign status of the Eeyou and their collective engagements with colonial agents, but the symbiosis that existed between the Hudson's Bay Company and Indian Affairs Canada. In the second set of letters, written in the 1970s by community…
