<b>First Nations foundations: cities and the infrastructuring of settler colonisation</b>
</div>
<div class="elementToProof" style="margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em; font-family: Aptos, Aptos_EmbeddedFont, Aptos_MSFontService, Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
The infrastructuring of First Nations land into cities is a central project of settler colonisation. In the lands now known as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the United States, settler-colonial myths of ‘uncultivated’ territory justified English invasion
and settlement. These myths continue to inform contemporary infrastructure development and discourse which resist First Nations’ sovereignties and self-determination even as the latter unsettles settler-colonial infrastructuring. This chapter offers a predominantly
theoretical account of how urban infrastructuring is a constitutive feature of settler colonisation and how settler-colonial urban imaginaries construct both urbanisation and infrastructure as non-Indigenous. These imaginaries in turn render urban First Nations
and their participation in infrastructure as ‘out of place’. Because settler-colonial urban infrastructures are premised on the material, historical, and cultural removal of First Nations from cities, First Nations resistance and presence in urban spaces can
be read as contestations over infrastructural citizenship and infrastructural violence in terms of the kinds of subjects who are supported to live in cities. The chapter uses the case study of Sydney, situated in the Eora Nation, to illustrate the relations
between urban infrastructure, settler colonisation, and First Nations. </div>
