When We Are Kin
The History and Future of Afro-Indigenous Solidarity“Kyle Mays ain’t playin’. With courage, concision, and candor, When We Are Kin lays bare hard truths about the limits of reparations and sovereignty without decolonization and the dismantling of racial-settler capitalism. But this is not a takedown. On the contrary, it is a clarion call to deepen Black and Indigenous solidarity by understanding the complexities of our braided histories, abandoning liberal notions of property, and fighting for our liberation—together.” —Robin D. G. Kelley, author of Freedom Dreams: The Black Radical Imagination “When We Are Kin is rigorous, unflinching, and deeply rooted in Afro-Indigenous love, memory, and accountability. This book is not just history; it is a call to action, a refusal to let white supremacy script our relationships to land, kinship, or one another.” —Dr. Jessica Hernandez, author of Fresh Banana Leaves: Healing Indigenous Landscapes through Indigenous Science and Growing Papaya Trees: Nurturing Indigenous Roots During Climate Displacement “When We Are Kin makes a case for an intentional Black and Indigenous relationality that rejects the logics of white supremacy and colonialism in favor of practices of solidarity forged through co-belonging and co-resistance, a liberation we make together.” —Leanne Betasamosake Simpson, author of Theory of Water: Nishnaabe Maps to the Times Ahead “Kyle Mays has mastered the art of simplifying unnecessary jargon and complicating the half-truths that we take at face value. In When We Are Kin, he makes the best case for Afro-Indigenous solidarity and asks us to reconsider justice and equity on our terms. I will be thinking about this book for quite some time!” —Brea Baker, author of Rooted: The American Legacy of Land Theft and the Modern Movement for Black Land Ownership “This book gets right to the heart of the matter: Black and Indigenous liberation is intertwined, and the struggle for collective liberation will take all of us. Mays’s vision maps out what we owe one another as we do the work of getting free.” —Robyn Maynard, author of Policing Black Lives: State Violence in Canada from Slavery to the Present “It’s rare to find a book that is both genuinely refreshing and entertaining, while speaking with such clarity and courage. When We Are Kin is fearless. Kyle Mays tells the truth plainly—no sugarcoating, no shortcuts. This book isn’t optional for anyone serious about building solidarity. And if we are truly committed to liberation, then we need more voices willing to speak this boldly.” —Trevor Smith and Savannah Romero, cofounders of the BLIS Collective “In When We Are Kin, Kyle Mays does what only he can do—speak truth to power about Black-Indigenous solidarity with humor, authority, and introspection. He puts his whole foot in it and says all the things that need to be said, confronting the uncomfortable nuances around landback and reparations as strategies of decolonization. With history as his witness and the archives bringing the receipts, Mays demonstrates how the notion of assumed alliance between our peoples, simply because of a shared experience of oppression, creates a fragile and altogether incomplete site of unity. He instead helps us to understand that it is through the cultivation of Black-Indigenous kinship and centering of the land that we get there—actualized tribal sovereignty and Black freedom. A masterpiece.” —Amber Starks (Melanin Mvskoke), Afro-Indigenous advocate, organizer, and cultural critic

City of Dispossessions
Indigenous Peoples, African Americans, and the Creation of Modern Detroit"In this ambitious, comparative history of Indigenous people and African Americans in Detroit, Mays draws on cultural, intellectual, and social history, selectively tracing how this history of dispossession was central to Detroit's development. His goal is to recover the erased histories of both groups and to link that erasure to settler colonialism and racial capitalism...This important study effectively illustrates the processes by which Native Americans and Black Americans were removed from history and stereotyped alongside their efforts to challenge dispossessions."

Hip Hop Beats, Indigenous Rhymes
Modernity and Hip Hop in Indigenous North America"Mays' authorial voice is a striking one … His melding of scholarly and vernacular language is the great strength of the book, a stylistic choice that comes out of a desire to bridge his academic readership and his Indigenous interlocutors." — Transmotion "This book is incredibly important and will change the fields of Native American, African American, gender, and sound studies. It is the first full-length monograph on the rich, diverse, and complex field of Indigenous hip hop. This is the text against which all other studies in the field will be compared." — Michelle Raheja, University of California, Riverside
