Indigenous and decolonizing studies in education : Mapping the long view.
When I first registered for this course, I was very nervous. I had no idea what I was getting myself into or how it would challenge my way of thinking. I was very nervous and thought I should do some scholarly reading before the course began to get myself ready for what could be coming down the line. This book, although it is set to be officially published in 2019, has really opened my eyes to some of the views I hold and how I need to shift my sense of belonging to better understand how I am impacting my students. Chapter 10, titled, Decolonization for the Masses? Grappling With Indigenous Content Requirements in the Changing Canadian Post-Secondary Environment by Adam Gaudry and Danielle E. Lorenz really piqued my interest in universities requiring mandatory Indigenous studies courses and how they are paving the way towards supporting the Truth and Reconciliation Commissions Calls to Action.
