Blood quantum : Un film de zombies vraiment original où les peuples autochtones d'Amérique du Nord sont immunisés grâce à leur patrimoine génétique parce que voilà.
Inversion du rôle des réserves indiennes qui deviennent des refuges pour la population WASP, renversement des système de domination, un réinvention du film de zombies qui nous parle des réfugiés et de solidarité.
 Ça commence très bien mais au dernier tiers gros dérapage , les motivations et actions des personnages n'ont plus aucun sens avec le début du film. Bref, pour se payer un beau final, le film raconte n'importe quoi sur la fin. Dommage.

#horror – #horrormovies – #BloodQuantum – #Shudder – @shudder – The dead are coming back to life outside.

Finding out more reasons why my paternal ancestry is so very undocumented. Apparently, the records house for Newfoundland burnt down in the early 1950s. And I found out that the Salvation Army "teacher" at my dad's "school" (Newfoundland equivalent of Indian day school/residential school) destroyed all the records of students there.

Dad ran away and lied about his age to join the military.

Meanwhile, on Instagram, people I don't even know and have never met or spoken to are telling people I'm a Pretendian. I sure hate the whole Pretendian thing. Yes, there are liars out there trying to capitalize on false identities, but there are also modern-day witch hunters, and they are after me. Nothing I say will appease them. Blood quantum and colonialism are a helluva ride and I'd like off. #ResidentialSchools #BloodQuantum #Pretendian #WitchHunt

#BloodQuantum laws exist to keep you on the side of the colonists and not your native cousins. It's propaganda to keep your allegiance on the side of the federal government instead of your family

I’ve even been quizzed by other Indigenous people on my blood quantum. It’s gross. #Indigenous #Genocide #BloodQuantum #RacismStillExists #IndianAct

Blood quantum has been used to categorize me by Indigenous people, immigrants, and settlers. An immigrant once asked me if I am Indigenous. “Yes,” I said. “How much?” she asked. How do I answer that? I am a mixture of Inuk and Mi’kmaw and European. I was raised knowing I am Inuk. That’s not enough for a lot of people. https://www.record-eagle.com/opinion/op-ed-blood-quantums-dark-history-to-erase-natives-like-me/article_82d3f1ca-8dca-11ed-b25c-3bbbbf4ee62f.html? #BloodQuantum #Indigenous #colonialism #genocide

Trying to #tonePolice folks who are genuinely trying to reconnect with their lost ancestry due to genocide & oppression is colonial AF. Please understand that #BloodQuantum is a messed up #colonial construct. Please don't do the splitting work that colonial govts want you to use. Please call IN your own sellouts & expose them, if they refuse to respect your community & take colonial $$ to f**k your community over. Don't say sorry for that!
