Explores the meaning and scope of indigenous homelessness in the Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. They argue that effective policy and support programs aimed at relieving indigenous homelessness must be rooted in indigenous conceptions of home, land, and kinship, and cannot ignore the context of systemic inequality, institutionalization and landlessness that stem from a history of colonialism.

Trade Review
“When authors discuss the concept of ‘home/journeying’ or the notion of a ‘place to stand’ or the concept of ‘rootlessness’, and the significance of the manaakitange, they are not only showing that they are ‘acquainted with the literature on the subject’ but more importantly that they are acquainted with and respectful of the ways of indigenous Peoples.” — robert robson, Professor, department of indigenous learning, lakehead University
