Aprašymas

The stories colonizers tell about Diné people represent them as adaptors, uncontrollable, and unruly. These wounding narratives justify the displacement and dispossession of Diné people, masking the ongoing violence of settler colonialism.

Bundle: Life, Stories, and Hope Across Diné Worlds challenges and dismantles these harmful depictions. By shifting the paradigm away from anthropological lenses, this book offers an exploration of bundling: the active, physical, spiritual, and ideological practice through which Diné people assemble stories, tools, and knowledge. From world shifts detailed in oral narratives to the present deadly structures of colonization, Diné people have long relied on their bundled knowledge systems to sustain their presence across worlds and time.

Bundle is a must-read for anyone seeking to understand Diné resistance, hope, and worlding. Rather than studying Diné life from the outside, it prioritizes Diné ways of knowing and being to develop bundling as a theory of continuance. For readers invested in decolonization, place-making, and storytelling, Bundle provides an indispensable roadmap for how Diné people continue even in the face of domination.
