Abstract

This paper discusses the relationship between Christian imperialism, colonialism and sexual violence within Native communities. It is inadequate to conceptualize sexual violence simply as a tool of patriarchy, because sexual violence has served as a primary tool of racism and genocide against Native peoples. Thus, colonialism and sexual violence cannot be separated. This relationship also compels anti-violence advocates to develop responses to sexual violence that do not at the same time strengthen institutions of colonialism and racism.
