Definition

Native segregation refers to the separation or isolation of indigenous people from the larger society, often as a result of discriminatory policies, practices, or attitudes. This form of segregation can manifest itself in various ways, such as the exclusion of indigenous people from equal access to education, healthcare, employment, and housing opportunities. Indigenous people may also be forced to live in specific areas or reservations, leading to limited mobility and social interaction with non-indigenous populations. Native segregation is often a product of historical colonialism, where indigenous cultures, land, and rights have been disregarded and marginalized. The impacts of native segregation can include economic disparities, cultural erosion, and limited opportunities for indigenous individuals and communities to thrive. Efforts to address native segregation often involve advocacy for equal rights, land recognition, and the promotion of cultural diversity and indigenous self-determination.
