sre.sagepub.comCurrent (and Future) Theoretical Debates in Sociology of Race and EthnicityIn this article I argue for the necessity of a settler
colonialism framework for an historically grounded
and inclusive analysis of U.S. race and gender for-mation. A settler colonialism framework can
encompass the specificities of racisms and sexisms
affecting different racialized groupsŠespecially
Native Americans, blacks, Latinos, and Asian
AmericansŠwhile also highlighting structural and
cultural factors that undergird and link these rac
–
isms and sexisms. I offer here a first rough sketch
of a settler colonialismŒframed analysis of racial
formation in certain critical periods and places in
the United States. I engage with recent theoretical
work that views settler colonialism as a distinct
transnational formation whose political and eco-
nomic projects have shaped and continue to shape
race relations in first world nations that were estab-
lished through settler colonialism. My aim is to
avoid lumping all racisms together, even for the
benign purpose of promoting cross-race alliances to fight racial injustice. Equally, I wish to avoid
seeing racisms affecting various groups as com
–
pletely separate and unrelated. Rather, I endeavor
to uncover some of the articulations among differ
-ent racisms that would suggest more effective
bases for cross-group alliances.In the latter regard, one implication of taking settler colonialism seriously is to advance decolo-
nization as a necessary goal in the quest to achieve
race and gender justice. Indeed, the elaboration of
the settler colonialism framework has been closely
paralleled by the development of decolonial cri-
tiques of racial justice projects that aim to achieve
liberal inclusion, rather than liberation, of 560440SREXXX10.1177/2332649214560440Sociology of Race and Ethnicity

Comparative Studies of U.S.
Race and Gender FormationEvelyn Nakano Glenn1AbstractUnderstanding settler colonialism as an ongoing structure rather than a past historical event serves as
the basis for an historically grounded and inclusive analysis of U.S. race and gender formation. The settler
goal of seizing and establishing property rights over land and resources required the removal of indigenes,
which was accomplished by various forms of direct and indirect violence, including militarized genocide.
Settlers sought to control space, resources, and people not only by occupying land but also by establishing
an exclusionary private property regime and coercive labor systems, including chattel slavery to work the
land, extract resources, and build infrastructure. I examine the various ways in which the development of
a white settler U.S. state and political economy shaped the race and gender formation of whites, Native
