Description
Looks at various socially and culturally constructed categories of discrimination and demonstrates the need for courts to employ multidimensionality theory in cases of complex oppression.
Contrasts British male colonial attitudes to women in general and Indigenous women in particular to their status in traditional Indigenous societies; traces the development of stereotypes about both men and women; looks at the impacts of government-church alliances, the role of contemporary media and incidence and types of violence perpetrated against Indigenous women; and argues that restoring safety will mean recognizing and attempting to correct harms done by non-Indigenous societies, and decolonization of communities so that they may heal from historic trauma.
