Leçons de la rue : recourir à l’art urbain pour contester les fausses représentations et l’invisibilisation des femmes et des filles autochtones dans les médias de masse canadiens

Cet article examine le potentiel de l’art urbain pour contrer les représentations erronées des femmes et des filles autochtones dans les médias canadiens, où persistent des stéréotypes récurrents. J’analyse des exemples d’art urbain qui représentent des femmes autochtones en tant qu’individus bienveillants, autonomes et détentrices de savoirs. Ces manifestations artistiques produisent non seulement des récits alternatifs sur la maternité autochtone, mais elles offrent également une visibilité, alors que les histoires des femmes et des filles autochtones ne sont pas régulièrement présentes dans les médias canadiens. Les représentations négatives des femmes et des filles autochtones ont été mises en lien avec la violence qu’elles subissent au Canada ; il est donc d’une importance vitale de perturber ces fausses représentations et ces stéréotypes.
