During the Second World War, Indigenous people in the United
States, Australia, New Zealand and Canada mobilised en masse to
support the war effort, despite withstanding centuries of
colonialism. Their roles ranged from ordinary soldiers fighting on
distant shores, to soldiers capturing Japanese prisoners on their
own territory, to women working in munitions plants on the home
front. R. Scott Sheffield and Noah Riseman examine Indigenous
experiences of the Second World War across these four settler
societies. Informed by theories of settler colonialism, martial
race theory and military sociology, they show how Indigenous people
and their communities both shaped and were shaped by the Second
World War. Particular attention is paid to the policies in place
before, during and after the war, highlighting the ways that
Indigenous people negotiated their own roles within the war effort
at home and abroad.
