C-A-L-L # 2: Architecture on Colonized Land

Contemporary calls to action at 1492 Landback Lane, the Wet’suwet’en pipeline blockade, long-term boiled water advisories in Neskantaga, and treaty violations against Mi’kmaq fishermen have made the perseverance of Canada’s colonial enterprise abundantly clear. Institutional racism towards Indigenous people on Turtle Island has resulted in gross inequities in the quality of infrastructure, housing, and critical services, particularly on treaty lands. Indigenous practitioners and communities have often led progressive production in the built world, foregrounding notions of social and ecological sustainability long before the industry took any notice.
