Definition[edit | edit source]

Perceived native segregation refers to the perception or belief that indigenous or native communities are segregated or isolated from the larger society. This perception may arise due to various factors, including cultural differences, historical marginalization, and socioeconomic disparities.

Perceived native segregation can manifest in different aspects of life, such as residential areas, schools, public spaces, and employment opportunities. It is often associated with the notion that indigenous communities are confined to specific regions or territories and have limited integration and interaction with the wider population.

It is important to note that perceived native segregation may not always accurately reflect the reality of indigenous communities. Sometimes, it can be a result of stereotypes, prejudice, or limited understanding of the diversity within native groups. In many cases, indigenous communities continue to maintain their cultural identity and distinctiveness while also engaging with the broader society.
