| Abstract: |
The struggle to have the gender inequalities removed from the Indian Act, which continues today, has been a difficult journey. The paternalism is so well entrenched in Aboriginal communities that Native women have been struggling internally as well as externally to have their rights acknowledged. The oppressed have often proven to be the oppressor. |
