The unfinished business of “Decolonizing”
•Claim our Land
•Testimonies thru oral evidence
Autumn •continued story telling
•celebrating the fact we are still here
•remembering our past and how we responded to that time
Spring
•Indigenizing - meaning we draw on our traditions
•Intervening - stepping up to the plate
•revitalize our language and lifeways
•connecting to our families in other parts of the country
•Gendering the Environment to its proper element
•i.e: water as a feminine element
•reframing for greater control
•Sharing of knowledge
