Böcker av David Correia

The remarkable true story of an Indigenous family who fought back, over multiple generations, against the world-destroying power of settler colonial violence.Just weeks before police would kill him in Gallup, New Mexico, in March of 1973, Larry Casuse wrote that "never before have we faced an enemy such as this." An Enemy Such as This, for the first time, tells the history of that colonial enemy through the simultaneously epic and intimate story of Larry Casuse and those, like him, who fought against it.From the genocidal Mexican war against the Apaches in the nineteenth century, through the collapse of European empires in the first half of the twentieth century, and culminating in the efforts of young Navajo activists and organizers in the second half of the twentieth century to confront settler colonialism in New Mexico, An Enemy Such as This offers a resolutely Native-focused history of colonialism.

Radical glossary of the vocabulary of policing that redefines the very way we understand law enforcement

The Nature of Police explores the everyday practices of police and policing as modes of violence in the fabrication of social order.

Through a compelling story about the conflict over a notorious Mexican-period land grant in northern New Mexico, Correia examines how law and property are constituted through social struggle and suggests that violence is not the opposite of property but rather is essential to its operation.
