Title: "Responsibilities of Identity: Recognition and Epistemic Injustice under Frameworks of Settler-colonial Domination."

 

Drawing on notions of hermeneutical domination and epistemic trust, I argue that distortions and misrecognitions produced by recognition-based approaches to First Nations' issues can be rendered more intelligible and therefore resolved by the assumption of identity-based collective responsibilities by the party seeking recognition.
