Abstrakt: Olivia C. Harrison's book, "Natives Against Nativism: Antiracism and Indigenous Critique in Postcolonial France," explores the concept of "indigenous critique" and its potential to counter the nativist recuperation of indigeneity in France. The book argues that indigeneity should be seen as a political identity rather than a marker of native belonging, and that solidarity between different groups can challenge exclusionary claims to Frenchness based on racial, religious, and cultural identities. The text also discusses the complexities of solidarity movements and activism in relation to the Palestinian cause and migrant communities in France, emphasizing the need to understand specific struggles and identities. It concludes by highlighting the ongoing relevance of the Palestinian question in France and beyond. [Extracted from the article]
