ABSTRACT

The dawning of the twenty-first century gave us postindustrial capitalism in the U.S. as the colonized world became responsible for satisfying U.S. consumer culture; global burning and climate chaos; renewed migration on the part of indigenous peoples living south of the U.S.-Mexico borderlands, and the violent attack against these migrants and their cultures; amplified criminalization of youth of color (internally colonized people in the U.S.), the War on Drugs, and mass incarceration; and the increased reliance on and ubiquity of communications and surveillance technology.
