Abstract
This paper intends to examine the experiences of women in the post-apocalyptic setting of Cherie Dimaline’s novel The Marrow Thieves. It compares their efforts to preserve language and culture and their participation in the resistance movement depicted in the novel to historical and present-day Indigenous and women-led movements in North America. This paper aims to explore the ways in which the female characters endure the extreme conditions of the post-apocalyptic world of the novel and how their experiences relate to the existing plight of Indigenous women in Canada and the United States. Much like non-fictional women, the women in the novels are indispensable; they are crucial in the transmission of cultural practices and language, they participate in resistance movements and ultimately ensure the survival of humanity.

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
