Feminism occupies a rich and meaningful, albeit uncomfortable, history in Indigenous communities in the UnitedStates. This chapter examines that history in relation to the women’s suffrage and civil rights movements. It arguesthat in deflection and invitation of feminist politics during these movements, Indigenous scholars, activists, andartists (not necessarily mutually exclusive) demonstrate the primacy of sovereignty and self-determination in theirunderstandings of how feminism is or is not relevant to them, clarifying the constitutive role of US imperialism,racism, and sexism in how feminism has been (dis)articulated. At the same time, it argues that Indigenous feminismhas asserted
the polity of the Indigenous: the unique governance, territory, and culture of an Indigenous people ina system of (non)human relationships and responsibilities to one another. In doing so, Indigenous feminismsrearticulate the futurity of indigeneity in political coalition with non-Indigenous peoples against the ongoing socialforces of US imperialism, racism, and sexism
