A YELLOWHEAD INSTITUTE RED PAPER

BORDERS HIDE

THE HORIZON

An Indigenous internationalist study of imperialism, migration, and the horizon of possibility beyond the colonial border.

FULL REPORT COMING

SUMMER 2027

ABOUT THE PROJECT

Borders Hide the Horizon is an in-depth study on Indigenous internationalism — Indigenous perspectives on imperialism and international relations, migration and border regimes, solidarity and movement-building, and reimagining liveable worlds.

This soft launch opens the research to the wider Yellowhead community across five pieces, with more to come ahead of the full Red Paper publication.

Together, we will reimagine liveable worlds, and move toward the horizon, where the conditions of possibility aren’t mediated by colonial borders.
