With each chapter a track, the book compiles a setlist drawn from across the Western Hemisphere, from sparsely populated regions of Alaska to the crowded streets of Mexico City, where a punk market stands atop the ruins of Tenochtitlan. Emerging from the mix is the discovery that Native punk articulates sovereignty beyond definitions of state power by exerting independence from corporations and governments. This mixtape reveals how Native punk, pinned at the crossroads of the personal and the collective, articulates self-determination to question both tribal norms and colonial tropes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStage diving with the Friends of Cesar Romero, the Bastard Fairies, Lozen, and Postcommodity, \u003cem\u003eWhere Next, Columbus?\u003c\/em\u003e conducts readers on a journey that engages familiar punk maxims like DIY ethics, disruptive artistry, humor as critique, and the relentless questioning of authority figures-arriving at a kaleidoscopic vision of sovereignty through Native sounds and visual arts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhere next, Columbus?
