Reviews

Reminds us that settler colonialism is unsettled business. The essays in this collection provide a varied and vital discussion of the ways that settler violence, dispossession, and common sense continue to rage against contemporary practices of Indigenous sovereignty.--Stefan Hodges, Concordia University Antipode Settler City Limits is a useful collection that speaks across disciplines that might engage more with Indigenous studies. Its focus on the 'urban prairie west' is primarily centered on Canadian cities, particularly Winnipeg, and yet through theorizations of settler space making, it maintains a wide relevance to ongoing international conversations on Indigenous urbanism. Though the majority of this collection could serve well as stand-alone pieces, the strength of this volume is considering its wholeness, which speaks across disciplines, spaces, and histories.--Sasha Maria Suarez, University of Madison-Wisconsin American Indian Culture and Research Journal A fascinating, well-researched collection. --N. J. Parezo CHOICE
