Intersections of indigenous and environmental history in Canada.

The relationship between environmental and Indigenous history is complex and still evolving. As the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada reminds us, land dispossession is not simply an historical phenomenon, but one that continues to affect Indigenous communities and Indigenous-settler relations in the present day. This article takes an historiographical approach to examining issues related to decolonizing research practices that privilege Indigenous perspectives, differing cultural views of resources and the environment, and the colonizing impacts of industrial and extractive practices on Indigenous communities. It argues that more scholars should incorporate gendered perspectives, and that they analyze Indigenous history in ways that respect our own national boundaries on Turtle Island. View document
