520    "New Indigenous movements are gaining traction in North 
       America: the Missing and Murdered Women and Idle No More 
       movements in Canada, and the Native Lives Matter and 
       NoDAPL movements in the United States. These do not 
       represent new demands for social justice and treaty rights,
       which Indigenous groups have sought for centuries. But 
       owing to the extraordinary visibility of contemporary 
       activism, Indigenous people have been newly cast as 
       terrorists--a designation that justifies severe measures 
       of policing, exploitation, and violence. The Red Scare 
       investigates the intersectional scope of these four 
       movements, and the broader context of the treatment of 
       Indigenous social justice movements as threats to 
       neoliberal and imperialist social orders. In The Red Scare,
       Joanne Barker shows how US and Canadian leaders leverage 
       the fear-driven discourses of terrorism to allow for 
       extreme responses to Indigenous activists, framing them as
       threats to social stability and national security. The 
       alignment of Indigenous movements now with broader 
       struggles against sexual, police, and environmental 
       violence puts them at the forefront of new intersectional 
       solidarities in prominent ways. The activist-as-terrorist 
       framing is cropping up everywhere, but the historical and 
       political complexities of Indigenous movements and state 
       responses are unique. Indigenous criticisms of state 
       policy, resource extraction and contamination, intense 
       surveillance, and neoliberal values are met with outsized 
       and shocking measures of militarized policing, 
       environmental harm, and sexual violence. The Red Scare 
       provides students and readers with a concise and thorough 
       survey of these movements and their links to broader 
       organizing; the common threads of historical violence 
       against Indigenous people; and the relevant alternatives 
       we can find in Indigenous forms of governance and 
       relationality"--|cProvided by publisher.
