Decolonization is not a metaphor
By Eve Tuck & K. Wayne Yang

“Our goal in this article is to remind readers what is unsettling about decolonization. Decolonization brings about the repatriation of Indigenous land and life; it is not a metaphor for other things we want to do to improve our societies and schools.”

@Yehuda This was a really interesting read. Thank you for sharing! As a former liberal arts teacher, I was struck by the passage about how liberal arts education seems to want to try to make settlers indigenous and that's not a good thing.

I'm going to have to sit with this essay for a while.
