The illusion of inclusion: Agenda 21 and the commodification of Aboriginal culture in the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Games
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract This article investigates the discourse about Aboriginal people benefitting from the 2010 Olympic Games and argues there was nothing fundamentally new about Aboriginal involvement in Vancouver, except for an unprecedented mobilization of Aboriginal bodies, land and insignia. In this regard, Aboriginal inclusion in 2010 was definitely different from past Games. There were more Aboriginal performers, artists and volunteers, more cultural imagery in strategic locations, and more indigenous merchandise for sale than ever before. Yet, in spite of their increased visibility, the power relations sustaining historic inequities between Olympic organizers and Aboriginal people remained largely unchanged. Indeed, a closer look at how Aboriginal people were involved in the Vancouver Games, the promises made to them, and the legacies that actually materialized, suggests the present day arrangement for Aboriginal people within the Olympic industry has actually worsened.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
