Indigenous peoples' complex analytical issues include historical misrepresentation, struggles over sovereignty and autonomy, and Euro-American "conquest" including invasion, genocide, culturicide, and coercive assimilation, ranging over half a millennium of invasion and colonization. Perhaps the most critically contentious of these issues is genocide. We review historical construction of racial formation and cultural domination, focus on California genocide of Native peoples, and present articles in this special issue as means of understanding these processes and proposing future directions for indigenous studies
