Abstract
This essay examines the scholarly writing and activism regarding environmental justice, including Grace Thorpe (Potawatomi, Kickapoo, Sac and Fox, and Menominee) and her challenge of toxic waste on Indigenous lands and Kim TallBear ((Sisseton Wahpeton Oyate) and her support of Standing Rock. The essay argues that intersectionality at its core is wisdom and philosophy of All of Our Relations. It argues that Native feminism and Indigenous philosophy of All of Our Relations bring together racial and environmental justice scholarship and activism and challenge the racist and settler colonial mindset that Indigenous people are waste, and their lands are wastelands. It also argues that settler colonialism contributes to the erasure of Indigenous philosophy of All of Our Relations. It argues that Indigenous women activists and scholars influenced by All of Our Relations contribute to feminism, intersectionality, and environmental justice research and theory.
