Abstract
Nishant Upadhyay (they/them) is an Assistant Professor of Ethnic Studies at the University of
Colorado Boulder. This talk theorizes Indigenous and South Asian everyday proximities,
relationalities, and intimacies, or what they call colonial intimacies, within the Canadian setter
state by exploring short stories written by Cree writer Thomas Highway and Punjabi writer
Sadhu Binning. Colonial intimacies engage with gender, sexual, and racial formations to
theorize the coloniality of racial/sexual power.
