Belated happy birthday to Juliana!🎂👇🏽Repost @mexirican517: Couldn’t have picked a better time to start reading the 10th book in my effort to read 49 books in my 49th year - ‘Space - Time Colonialism: Alaska’s Indigenous and Asian Entanglements’, by  Juliana Hu Pegues (UNC Press) - as it happens to be the author’s birthday! I’m blessed to call Juliana a dear friend of nearly 25 years, and she is one of the smartest & most politically grounded people I know, so I’m sure this book will teach me much, as I shift from one corner of American settler colonialism (Puerto Rico) to another (Alaska). Have you read this book?  Also, say hi to Cuca in the background.  #books #bookstagram #49books #49BooksInAYear #49BooksInMy49thYear  #Space-TimeColonialism #SpaceTimeColonialism #JulianaHuPegues #Alaska #Cuca #DogsAndBooks #BooksAndDogs
