Smudging the Cystem; Rejecting the Politics of Traditionalism and Settler-Homonationalism
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This is a study of LGBTQ2 Indigenous identity and politics in colonial Canada. Scholars of Indigenous politics have recently focused on the importance of interrogating the sexualized and heteronormative landscape of settler colonialism, which has led to the proliferation of anti-queer violence within Indigenous nations. As such, the central tasks of this study are to determine how Two-Spirit Queer (2SQ) people engage in practices of resistance and freedom, as well as the factors that account for a queer Indigenous politics. Specifically, this study is interested in 2SQ life and politics among Blackfoot people. The thesis also examines how 2SQ people are problematically situated within the politics of “Two Spirit Reconciliation” as it propagates settler-homonationalism. Throughout the thesis, I argue that Indigenous territorialities, and the relational networks they carry, are central to the political resurgence of 2SQ people.

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.
