Enabling the Autumn Seed: Toward a Decolonized Approach to Aboriginal Knowledge, Language, and Education

This article from the Canadian Journal of Native Education talks about the importance of aboriginal languages and how language is a means of preserving knowledge. The article also highlights and challenges the practices and occurrences that have happened in the past which resulted in language and knowledge to be discredited and left behind. Aboriginal educational concerns are discussed and the importance of the presence of curriculum that is aligned to aboriginal culture is encouraged as a means of protecting and respecting these cultures.
