Background:

While many settler allies are eager to help towards the goal of disrupting racism, a clearer understanding of how best to harness this eagerness is required within the field of Indigenous health, a field currently comprised mainly non-Indigenous scholars, researchers and educators.

Purpose:

Responding to this challenge, this article aims to identify ways of working towards disrupting settler colonialism and addressing racism in all of its manifestations by building settler allyship and adopting an anti-racist lens within the field of Indigenous health. The article describes how to approach building settler allyship by implementing anti-racist acts.

Method:

By using anti-racist scholarship and showcasing recent public examples of anti-Indigenous racism, the author describes how settler allies can approach developing unsettled, critical and anti-racist conversations with one another and in respectful ways with Indigenous peoples. As many Indigenous peoples continue to identify ongoing racism, there is a need for informed, unsettled, anti-racist allies willing to challenge their own complicity to then take action when anti-Indigenous racism occurs. Actions include critical self-reflection, confronting white supremacy and implementing demonstrably anti-racist acts.

Conclusion:

Findings provide the basis for amplifying unsettling conversations between engaged settler allies to develop anti-racist ways of fostering and extending relationships with Indigenous people and scholars.

定居者的盟友是建立起来的，而不是自封为友：与土著人民健康相关的非土著研究人员和教育工作者的谈话令人不安

背景：

虽然许多定居者的盟友渴望帮助实现破坏种族主义的目标，但在土著健康领域（目前主要由非土著学者，研究人员和教育工作者组成的领域）中，需要对如何最好地利用这种渴望进行更清晰的了解。

目的：

为应对这一挑战，本文旨在通过建立移民联盟并在土著居民健康领域采用反种族主义的眼光，来确定破坏定居者殖民主义并解决种族主义所有表现形式的方法。本文介绍了如何通过实施反种族主义行为来建立定居者联盟。

方法：

通过使用反种族主义奖学金，并展示了最近有关反土著种族主义的公开例子，作者描述了定居者盟友如何以相互尊重的方式与彼此发展未解决的，批判性的和反种族主义的对话。随着许多土著人民继续发现正在进行的种族主义，有必要建立一个知情的，动荡不安的反种族主义盟友，他们愿意挑战自己的同谋，然后在反土著种族主义发生时采取行动。行动包括批判性的自我反省，面对白人至上和实施明显的反种族主义行为。

结论：

研究结果为扩大订婚定居者盟友之间的不安对话提供了基础，以发展反种族主义的方式来促进和扩大与土著人民和学者的关系。
