Drawing on Indigenous knowledge to create a more equitable education system for all A valuable resource for educators looking to actively participate in reshaping the future for Indigenous, Black, and students of color in their classrooms, Re-Storying Education outlines how colonialism has shaped a school system at odds with Indigenous knowledge--and how this has been detrimental to generations of students. Drawing from her own experiences as a child of the Sixties Scoop and those of Indigenous students within the public school system, Indigenous academic Carolyn Roberts offers a deep understanding of how to support educators to create a nurturing and inclusive environment for all students, staff, and teachers. Re-Storying Education contains valuable lesson and assessment ideas, fostering the development of a critical lens in education. Roberts offers questions for self-reflection, suggestions for professional action, recommended resources for further learning, personal anecdotes, her own decolonizing teaching practices, and music playlists that reflect the spirit of and work to uplift Indigenous voices. Re-Storying Education introduces holistic perspectives, respect for nature, and a deeper understanding of cultural diversity to enhance teaching practices and enrich education. It invites readers into an open dialogue in the pursuit of a more inclusive and just educational landscape.
