With great reflection and compassion, Gideon Mailer identifies how genocide and massacre have impacted Jews and Indigenous peoples, not only in the political, cultural and social spheres, but also in the imaginaries of these groups, their collective archives so that they retain a kinship previously unexamined. * Kitty Millet, Associate Professor, San Francisco University, USA * This is an ambitious, generous, and much needed book. It addresses anxieties that have made it hard to see links between the experience and representation of anti-Jewish and anti-indigenous genocides. More impressive still, it does so without overly generalizing the experiences and sensibilities of indigenous people or Jews themselves or reducing them solely to victimhood. It should foster many productive and critical discussions. I hope it will be widely read. * Jonathan Boyarin, Diann G. and Thomas A. Mann Professor of Modern Jewish Studies, Cornell University, USA * Gideon Mailers ambitious study of the intersections of memory politics surrounding two instances of genocidal violence (i.e., settler colonial genocides of Indigenous peoples in North America and the Holocaust, the Nazi genocide of European Jews), sheds new light on the debates around this weighty concept. * Canadian Jewish Studies *
