Abstract "Increasing numbers of Indigenous peoples are living in cities, yet the vast majority of studies focus solely on the rural Indigenous. This is the first book to look at urban Indigenous peoples globally and present the urban Indigenous experience-not as the exception, but the norm. Dismissing the false idea that Indigeneity is only 'authentic' when it is practiced in remote rural areas, these wide-ranging essays show that a vigorous, vibrant, and meaningful indigeneity can be created in urban spaces too and offers perspectives and tools to understand a contemporary Indigenous urban reality"-- Provided by publisher.
