The Land is Our History chronicles indigenous activism in Australia, Canada, and New Zealand in the late twentieth century and shows how, by taking their claims to court, indigenous peoples opened up a new political space for the negotiation of their rights, provoking debates about national identity and belonging that forced settler states to reckon with their demands.
