Resumen
Este artículo presenta dos marcos conceptuales: Trastorno Post-Colonización (TPC) y Fatiga por Contacto Colonial (FCC), para describir los impactos persistentes del colonialismo de asentamiento en los pueblos indígenas de Canadá. Escrito desde la perspectiva de una mujer Gitxsan, y se basa en epistemologías y narraciones indígenas; y en estudios feministas fundamentados en la experiencia
vivida. El TPC funciona como una lente analítica satírica que expone la negación de los colonizadores, la amnesia histórica y las narrativas de inocencia que perpetúan los sistemas coloniales. La FCC nombra el agotamiento espiritual, emocional y físico acumulativo que se experimenta a través del contacto continuo con las instituciones coloniales. El artículo destaca el papel de las mujeres indígenas, el humor y el conocimiento matrilineal como fuentes de resiliencia y resistencia, y como caminos hacia la sanación.
