I came across the following article, Settler Educators Teaching Indigenous Perspectives and History by Dr Angela Nardozi who is an educator at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education at U of T. She shares 3 points to assist settler educators in teaching about Indigenous perspectives and histories:
- “Spend time remembering and unlearning your own education about Indigenous peoples.”
- “Listen to Indigenous peoples in terms of what they want taught.”
- “Center Indigenous peoples experiences and stories in your teaching.”
A few of the resources mentioned in the article worth noting:
- Stolen Lives: A book created for Canadian educators with first-person accounts.
- Shi-shi-etko: A short illustrated story that introduces residential schools in an age appropriate way
