Autor

Krista Maxwell is Associate Professor of Anthropology at the University of Toronto. A settler scholar, her research focuses on Indigenous social and political organizing around healing, care, and child welfare from the mid-twentieth century to the present. These interests are motivated by an analysis of the biopolitics of liberal settler colonialism as both a mode of assimilative governance and social dismemberment, and affording space for tactical Indigenous agency.
