Indigenous Education and Colonial Histories

Catalog description

Critically examines the role of schooling in Indigenous communities within the broader project of colonialism. Traces how education has functioned as a tool of dispossession, assimilation and systemic inequity, while also shaping Indigenous strategies of survival and resurgence. Engaging archival and documentary sources, students analyze how the legacies of colonial schooling continue to influence contemporary struggles for educational sovereignty, justice and the decolonization of knowledge.
