Turtle Island Study Group

All works listed have been carefully reviewed and approved for theory education espousing a 'decolonial dengist' aka real Marxist-Leninist approach applying Marxism-Leninism as it is understood by AES countries to the material conditions of indigenous peoples of Turtle Island. This list will teach the basics to get started with ML.

  • No ultraleft or right deviations to be promoted here.
  • This list excludes anti-Soviet, anti-AES, anti-China, and pro-Western sources.
  • There will be no 'Marxian' academics, no worship of academia over traditional indigenous knowledge/cosmology, no sectarian liberal political influences, and no heedless acceptance of anticommunist slander.
  • No Chicano or Mexican or Latinidad colonialism.
  • No Ward Churchills either.
  • Primary sources are valued first.

This list is intended to be read by indigenous people for indigenous people, and assumes a basic self-knowledge. This list cannot tell exactly what to do but it gives hints and a guide to action. This list is ultimately, a consciousness raiser and conversation-starter.

Each and every work is thought by me to contain one or more important pieces of wisdom. In the first section is a list of what I think are the best introductory works, and the second section expands knowledge. After completion of this reading list:

  • the reader will hopefully be theoretically equipped to browse the classic Marxist literature in the usual places without suffering as many headaches, dead ends, and demoralization
  • any literature in general dealing with Turtle Island or decolonization in general will become very easy to critically analyze
  • the reader, no matter their education level, will be more educated on these themes than the average liberal academic, mental prisoner of "decolonial" academia; the tradition displayed on this page represents a tradition that has always existed outside of bourgeois academia; I have no formal education and believe in the accessibility of information to all people, for which I will continuously work to improve accessibility as any Marxist should
  • the reader is cautioned that these works can never replace the wisdom of firsthand experience, they are meant to enhance it

Someone asked me what are the general topics covered. To sum it up:

  • liberation from settler colonialism
  • liberation from neocolonialism
  • liberation from imperialism
  • liberation from capitalism
  • how to achieve prosperity
  • on the rights of indigenous people
  • how to achieve correct ideas
  • how to unite
  • historical accounts
  • debunking falsehoods
