Abstract
This paper will examine how agency is circulated through human and non-human worlds in the creation and maintenance of society from an Indigenous point of view. Through processes of colonization, the corruption of essential categories of Indigenous conceptions of the world (the feminine and land) has led to a disconnect between how this agency is manifested in society. Through a comparison between the epistemological-ontological divide and an Indigenous conception of Place-Thought, this paper will argue that agency becomes exclusive to humans, thereby removing non-human agency out of what constitutes a society. It is in this limited space of human-only thought and agency that colonial tactics of violence against Indigenous territory and Indigenous women are most ripe. This is accomplished in part through mythologizing Indigenous origin stories and separating out communication, treaty-making, historical agreements that human beings held with the animal world, the sky world, the spirit world, etc. Thus, in order for colonialism to operationalize itself, it must attempt to make Indigenous peoples stand in disbelief of themselves and their histories. This paper will reaffirm this sacred connection between place, non-human and human in an effort to access the “pre-colonial mind”.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
