🚨 Socialism 2026 Panel Debates Whether “Settler Colonialism” Is Too Imprecise and Needs to Be “White Settler Colonialism” At Socialism 2026’s “Ocean Deep Solidarity: Reparations, LANDBACK, and Collective Liberation” panel, Raven Schwam-Curtis invokes @UVA professor Tiffany King for some galaxy-brain theorizing over whether “settler colonialism” is simply too imprecise. The argument is that Black people and white settlers should not be treated as structurally equivalent in relation to Indigenous dispossession, so perhaps the more precise term is “white settler colonialism.” And yes, Tiffany King is one of my “favorite” radical professors, so I was delighted to see her get a shoutout.
