Module 3 Post 3
While I know I have seen a few other individuals in this class and on this blog already post a similar resource, I came across it independently in my research and wanted to reshare because this is gold:
Indigenization guides – BCcampus
With a bit of investigation, one is advised to begin with the Foundations resource:
Introduction – Pulling Together: Foundations Guide (opentextbc.ca)
These material are not only excellent for educators of all levels for all students, but they are also extremely useful and comprehensive resources for International students seeking an alternative history of Canada.
The reason why this is so important is because many International students are currently experiencing linguicide and deculturation. While there is no comparison to what happened with Indigenous Peoples over 600 years in North America, it is vital that Canada’s history is demystified to International people so they find allyship with Indigenous Peoples.
