Synopsis
Indigenous and decolonizing perspectives on education have long persisted alongside colonial models of education, yet too often have been subsumed within the fields of multiculturalism, critical race theory, and progressive education. Timely and compelling, Indigenous and Decolonizing Studies in Education features research, theory, and dynamic foundational readings for educators and educational researchers who are looking for possibilities beyond the limits of liberal democratic schooling. Featuring original chapters by authors at the forefront of theorizing, practice, research, and activism, this volume helps define and imagine the exciting interstices between Indigenous and decolonizing studies and education. Each chapter forwards Indigenous principles - such as Land as literacy and water as life - that are grounded in place-specific efforts of creating Indigenous universities and schools, community organizing and social movements, trans and Two Spirit practices, refusals of state policies, and land-based and water-based pedagogies.

Newspapers & Magazines
"A deeply affirming, justice-centered collection that maps diverse and meaningful relations from multiple educational, geographic, cultural, and disciplinary perspectives-and does so in ways that help us think, teach, and live better. Every scholar and student in any area of Indigenous Studies should have a copy of this vital work. I am so grateful to the editors and the contributors for this gift, as it will continue to inform, challenge, and inspire me and so many others for a very long time to come."

Daniel Heath Justice (Citizen, Cherokee Nation), Canada Research Chair in Indigenous Literature and Expressive Culture, Professor at the University of British Columbia

"This collection is a primarily Indigenous-authored focus on ways education can be restructured to serve the interests of Indigenous sovereignty and resurgence, starting from first principles of Indigenous being such as land as teacher, and water is life. I look forward to how this volume and this series can be a place for Indigenous scholarly dialogue on how to wisely raise up our people and learn from the leading practices Indigenous communities are engaging in worldwide. Indigenous readers will want to consult this work, and works in the series, to find guidance on and inspiration for how to decolonize at home."

Jean-Paul Restoule, Chair, Department of Indigenous Education, University of Virginia

'The artwork and her statement confirm that Indigenous ways of being are featured in this edited book. Each chapter is a gift in the deepest sense, sharing the Indigenous and decolonizing work by Indigenous scholars. This is not a how-to book; it is a book about work done our way"

Stephanie J. Waterman, NAIS Journal, University of Minnesota Press
