Abstract

Settler colonial violence targets Indigenous women in specific ways. While urban planning has attended to issues of women's safety, the physical dimensions of safety tend to be emphasized over the social and political causes of women's vulnerability to violence. In this paper, we trace the relationship between settler colonialism and violence against Indigenous women. Drawing on examples from community activism and organizing, we consider how Indigenous feminism might be applied to planning and point toward approaches to planning that do not replicate settler colonial violence.
