Resumen (es)

In this article, Grande argues that the frameworks of Critical Race Theory (CRT), designed to unveil the presence and impact of race and racism in the systems and structures of U.S. law and society, do not inhere the explanatory power for understanding the prior and enduring condition of settler colonization, Indigenous land dispossession or lifeways that center the constitutive relations of land.

En este artículo, Grande sostiene que los marcos de la Teoría Crítica de la Raza (CRT), diseñados para revelar la presencia y el impacto de la raza y el racismo en los sistemas y estructuras de las leyes y la sociedad de los Estados Unidos, no poseen por sí mismos el poder explicativo para comprender la condición previa y persistente de la colonización de asentamiento (settler colonialism), el despojo de tierras indígenas o los modos de vida que centran las relaciones constitutivas de la tierra.
