Barillas Chón, David W. “Ref/lecciones: lessons for my hijo and other children of Indigenous immigrants.” InterActions: UCLA Journal of Education and Information Studies 15.1 (2018). doi:10.5070/d4151041186
The author examined the racial discrimination against some indigenous Latin Americans in dimensions, including within learning institutions and working environments, based on their skin color and language. The study also noted challenges the Natives are grappling with and how they impact their life experiences and outcomes in America. Furthermore, the researcher suggested measures that indigenous Latin Americans adopted in response to racial discrimination in the U.S. The author noted that “racial discrepancies were made to establish as well as sustain power regimes and relationships of marginality between West Europeans and Indigenous people” (Barillas).
Currie, Cheryl L et al. “Past-Year Racial Discrimination and Allostatic Load Among Indigenous Adults in Canada: The Role of Cultural Continuity.” Psychosomatic medicine vol. 82,1 (2020): 99-107. doi:10.1097/psy.0000000000000754
In this article, Currie and colleagues noted that indigenous populations in many parts of the world experience high levels of discrimination across diverse life domains. The study objective entailed examining racial discrimination implications on native adults’ biological dysregulation, operationalized via allostatic load, and the mediating role of the population’s cultural continuity in cultivating resilience. The researchers noted the “painful and socially destructive nature of social dislocation or psychosocial integration” – a problem that indigenous populations are grappling with (Curie et al. 106). In this way, the study suggested indigenous cultural continuity as a remedy to augment biological resilience against the negative implications of racial prejudice on native adults’ mental processes.
Gordon, Heather Sauyaq Jean. “Alaska Native Subsistence Rights: Taking an Anti-Racist Decolonizing Approach to Land Management and Ownership for Our Children and Generations to Come.” Societies 12.3 (2022): 72. https://doi.org/10.3390/soc12030072
The researcher researched to examine contemporary racism as well as the continuing colonization endeavors concerning land ownership and administration practices across the whole region of Alaska state. Accordingly, the study investigated how racism influenced natives’ subsistence privileges as well as their ability to transmit their cultural values to children and the coming generations. Indeed, the author details the challenges caused by lacked recognition of ethnic sovereignty in Alaska. The study notes that “blood quantum discriminatory practices are central to separating Americans along racial lines to promote white supremacy” (Gordon 3). Attributing racial identity to the Natives ignores their inborn existence and culture as self-determining tribal communities separate from American sovereignty.
