Description
Discusses historical and contemporary reasons for migration to urban centres, the lack recognition of an urban presence based on the belief that identity and cities are incompatible because Indigeneity is solely defined by a relationship to the land, and how this attitude, coupled with government policy, has resulted in the lack of culturally appropriate supports and services available.
