Anti-violence efforts and Native American communities

The focus of this chapter is analyzing the responses to social harm against Native Americans in the contemporary settler-colonial context, and how these might be devoid of the violence that has characterized the white settler-state ‘justice’ systems. The chapter considers the efforts made by Native communities to give power and authority to Indigenous and other Native community-based anti-violence strategies, and how they can be used as models of potential preventative measures for other communities.
