Definition

Native residential segregation refers to the separation of Indigenous peoples from other racial or ethnic groups within residential areas. This segregation can be the result of historical trauma, systemic discrimination, and policies that have marginalized Indigenous communities and restricted their access to resources and opportunities. It can also be a reflection of social and economic disparities that have persisted for generations. Native residential segregation can have profound impacts on the well-being and quality of life of Indigenous individuals and communities, leading to higher rates of poverty, unemployment, and health disparities. efforts to address Native residential segregation typically involve promoting fair housing policies, supporting community development initiatives, and working to address the root causes of racial and ethnic inequality.
