Whereupon he took some of the menstrual fluid from men, and threw it upon the women, saying, "Henceforth women shall menstruate, and not men." 1 Coyote and his Hosts. Coyote was travelling over the earth. He felt hungry. He saw a house, entered, and found it inhabited by an old man called Fat-Man (Skia'uzkelesti'mt).' There was nothing to eat in the house, and he thought, 'What will this old man give me to eat?" The man knew his thoughts, and, making the fire blaze brightly, he sat with his bare back close in front of it. His back became soft and greasy, and he asked Coyote to eat. "Eat what?" said Coyote. And the man answered, "My back, of course." Coyote refused at first; but the man invited him to eat his back. Coyote said to himself, 'I will bite his back right to the bone, and kill him." Going up to the man, he took a big bite; but the piece came away in his mouth, and no mark was left on the man's body. He found the food was very good. Now he thought he could do the same thing: so, making a big blaze, he turned his back to the fire. But his back burned; and the smell of burning hair made the man angry, who threw him outside, saying, "You try to imitate me, but you cannot do it. You fool! Don't you know it is I only who can do that ?" Continuing his journey, Coyote came to another house, which he entered.

They all have ana- lytical edges and are broadly related to one another. But tucked away in various publications and often embedded in more empirical investiga- tions, many of them have been nearly invisible. Nor has it been possible to consider them as a coherent body of thought. Although that thought has evolved over the years, common assumptions run through these various writings. If the more analytical of them are assembled, some- thing of the broad architecture of settler colonialism may appear – the premise that underlies this collection.

  • Doukhobor-Sinixt Relations at the Confluence of the Kootenay and Columbia Rivers in the Early Twentieth Century
    “From Our Side We Will Be Good Neighbour[s] to Them”: Doukhobor-Sinixt Relations at the Confluence of the Kootenay and Columbia Rivers in the Early Twentieth Century Myler Wilkinson and Duff Sutherland* n the early twentieth century, Doukhobor newcomers to the West Kootenay region of British Columbia displaced the last indigenous peoples to live on the fertile lands at the confluence of 1 Ithe Kootenay and Columbia rivers – the Sinixt Christian family. This process enabled the Doukhobors, a Christian utopian sect originating in Russia, to take control of valuable lands that became the focus 2 of their extensive community operations in the region and beyond. But it also led to the dispossession of the indigenous Christian family and its exile from its home, kp’itl’els. For the Doukhobors, the beautiful lands at the confluence of the rivers became known as Brilliant and were an enduring source of hope and consolation for their persecution and suffering elsewhere. For the Christian family, neglected by federal and provincial officials, the experience was one of being fenced in on a small part of its land and having its burial grounds ploughed over as fields and orchards by Doukhobor farmers. In1919 , the remaining family members, Alexander Christian and his daughter Mary, abandoned their home as a result of the Christian utopian “invasion” – a bitter experience * An earlier version of this article was presented at the BC Studies Conference in Kelowna, May 2011.
