Phil Henderson is a Queen's Postdoctoral Fellow in Global Development Studies, working with Dr. Rebecca Hall and Dr. Lindsay Borrows (Law). He is a settler scholar, whose research focuses on Canadian colonialism/imperialism and anti-colonial movements. His forthcoming book manuscripts offer novel and robust theorizations of how the social relations of Canadian colonialism are built through both grassroots reactionary movements and through the state-building work of institution-formation. His ongoing postdoctoral research investigates the interrelations between organized labour and Indigenous land/water defenders in the Canadian context.
