DECOLONIZING THE TECHNOLOGIES OF KNOWLEDGE: VIDEO AND INDIGENOUS EPISTEMOLOGY – Freya Schiwy

This article has been translated from Spanish and is focused more towards the issue of decolonization through a Latin american lens. However, the main purpose of the article is to discuss the role of video in the process of decolonization and makes some reference to this topic in Canada and makes some applicable arguments.  One issue Schiwy discusses is to do with the politics of indigenous created videos and the “aesthetic norms” that have to come to be expected in their production.
