Bianet Castellanos has given us a powerful indictment of neoliberalism's perpetuation of the settler project of indigenous dispossession. She also effectively demonstrates how indigenous peoples develop strategies of resistance to new technologies of domination like racialized debt, and in the process craft new forms of urban indigeneity. -- Shannon Speed * University of California, Los Angeles * Drawing on her long-term collaboration with indigenous people, M. Bianet Castellanos eloquently critiques the dispossession of Maya in Cancun and illuminates their resistance. Her passion for revealing and dismantling the racial and gender hierarchies embedded in neoliberal projects is compelling. A nuanced contribution to our understanding of settler colonialism. -- Patricia Zavella * University of California, Santa Cruz, author of <i>The Movement for Reproductive Justice: Empowering Women of Color through Social Activism</i> * A fascinating and highly readable study of how indigenous Maya experience twenty-first-century rounds of dispossession and esclavitud-this time born of debt tied to housing financing. Focusing upon mortgage-based access to social interest housing in modern-day Cancun, M. Bianet Castellanos' account foregrounds indigenous voices as they struggle to become homeowners. -- Peter M. Ward * University of Texas at Austin * Author InformationM. Bianet Castellanos is Associate Professor of American Studies at the University of Minnesota.
