For context on the Ainu in modern Japan, Dubreuil offers a timely reassessment. Despite retaining citizenship post-1945 and being recognized as Indigenous in 2019 with consultation rights under UNDRIP Art. 19, the Ainu face systemic marginalization.

Any intellectual historians or just generally knowledgeable people: Who was the earliest member of a dominant, colonizing, group, to speak out against colonization?
I'm looking for as early as possible sources of Europeans or white Americans raising moral concerns about displacing and ethnically cleansing people from places they were conquering and occupying.

Battle of Fish Creek – Métis Ambush (Apr 24, 1885)

On April 24, 1885, Gabriel Dumont led ~150 Métis in an ambush at Fish Creek, halting General Middleton’s advance on Batoche. Though not decisive, the engagement exposed the effectiveness of Métis defensive tactics. #NorthWestRebellion #FishCreek #Métis #Canada #Colonization

"For decades, Palestine and #SouthAfrica were “understood as ongoing examples of incomplete #decolonization that continued long after the rest of the world had been fully decolonized”. Today, #Palestine is the last exception to that historical process – a holdover plainly clear to the people who were once subject to #colonization, but that the western world refuses to acknowledge as an aberration."

"The BCG team reportedly developed a financial model for Gaza’s post-conflict reconstruction, which included cost estimates for relocating hundreds of thousands of Palestinians outside the enclave, as well as the economic impact of such mass displacement."

#FourthOfJuly
I don't talk much about the damage the #Colonization of North America and the subsequent #Independence of the #UnitedStates has done to my personal family. And I probably never will, but it has been substantial, even to this very day.

Certainly I confront what the land and resources theft, what the genocide and enslavement of millions of people has done to my people more than my mother or grandmother, who were much more shell shocked than I am.

At its peak in the 1700s, the 25-square-mile Kōhala Field System on the northern tip of the Big Island of Hawai'i fed between 30,000 and 120,000 people. Then came the Europeans, bringing disease that decimated the Hawaiian population and destroyed the traditional knowledge of how to cultivate the 50 or 60 varieties of sugarcane and 50 types of sweet potato that once grew there. A non-profit, Ulu Mau Puanui, is now researching the system, guided by culturally centered science, with the goal of restoring that lost knowledge. Atlas Obscura's Sarah Lohman spoke to Ulu Mau Puanui's Kehaulani Marshall about the work she and her team are doing, and the question she wishes she could answer: What would the land have looked like without colonization? "We wonder, what the heck was coming up next in their plans. Because we know all ancestors plan for generations ahead,” she says.
