Abstract
Laurendeau interrogates the interconnections between settler colonialism and sport, recreation and physical activity, theorizing sport as both a site of ongoing colonial violence and a vital space of resistance, refusal, and reterritorialization. Laurendeau explains that settler colonialism is not a relic of a past moment but an ongoing genocidal project in still settling states as they perpetually work to claim ownership of and authority over stolen lands as part of a project of capital accumulation. Moreover, Laurendeau highlights, settler colonialism is a project that is fundamentally relational, structuring the lives not only of Indigenous peoples but of all who live in occupied territories. Sport and recreation, Laurendeau explains, constitute a key cultural space that produces and/or challenges ideas about bodies, relationships, belonging, nationhood, sovereignty, and more. Drawing primarily but not exclusively on examples unfolding on lands claimed by Canada, Laurendeau describes how sports like lacrosse and hockey, mega-events such as the North American Indigenous Games, and institutions and practices like sport in residential schools illustrate both the violences of settler colonialism and the refusals of those violences. Laurendeau takes an explicitly politicized approach to this work, highlighting the need to dismantle a social world that values profit over people and some people over others, a world that renders lives (of many people, most non-human animals, and the planet itself) expendable in the pursuit of perpetual economic growth.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
