N2 - The article builds upon the notion of land as wealth and examines the historical importance of the Wounded Knee site as both a site of genocide and resistance. It bridges Indigenous and Marxist perspectives by way of understanding the Oceti Sakowin Oyate's deeply anti-capitalist self-determination struggles by combining Marxist concepts and Indigenous intellectual contributions. The historical conquest of Oyate treaty land is also an international phenomenon that implicates indigenous people within the colonial and imperial logics of property as they relate to the notions of dominance as expressed by both the Doctrine of Discovery and the Framework of Dominance, key concepts in international and domestic law both past and present. Inherent within US federal Indian law is the reification of the theological Christian underpinnings of the Framework of Dominance and the expressed right of sovereign Christian nations of dominion over discovered land and people, rendering both as property of their Christian discoverers.
