Can you think of any examples from your own experience where decolonization was used as a metaphor rather than to refer to the physical decolonization of settlers from Indigenous land? Use Tuck & Yang's examples of moves to innocence to help you here (e.x settler nativism, fantasizing adoption, colonial equivocation, conscientization, at risk-ing/asterisking Indigenous peoples, re-occupation and urban homesteading.) 

    2) The article, "How a Fitxsan community fought back against an epidemic of youth suicide," describe how an Indigenous community responded to the high rate of youth suicide and attempted suicide. Think of the varying interventions outlined in the article, including the immediate response when someone is found on the bridge, and consider how Simpson's ideas about Indigenous nation hood could inform enabling interventions for this and other indigenous communities to circumvent suicide. Consider how the Indigenous interventions discussed in the article may (or may not) help in supporting Indigenous nationhood.

  • A critical approach that examines the previously existing native or pre-settler/colonist area, cultures and political practices. (Siegel, 2006)
  • Post colonial approach significantly plays a role of constructing attitudes towards different groups and settlement of the colonized. (Ashcroft, B., Griffiths, G. Tiffin, 2007))
  • The works of post-colonial theory also correspond to several aspects of concept of identity, difference and of the interpellation of the subject by a dominant discourse, it also helps to offer several methodologies of resistance to such domination. (Ashcroft, et al. 2007)

    1) World Decolonization 
    2) Acts of Abolition 
    3) Educating of Critical Space-Place pedagogies

    These discourses do little to disrupt existing disparities while endorsing pre-existing tropes of colonialism. (Tuck & Yang, 2012).

This theory speaks of a belief that individuals are directly descended from above (Heaven) and going back to the beginning of time. We all have traditions that make up the way we see the world, the way we organize ourselves,the kind of questions we ask others and the remedies we wish to find. There is more to our history under colonialism or our desire to bring back what we have lost.

Decolonization is appropriate regarding Indigenous sovereignty and must include repatriation of land and life. It’s incommensurability comes from the complexities that arise out of the settler-native-slave triad, which proves to entangle oppressed people to further settler colonization and colonial desires (Tuck & Yang, 2012). ]]> 2019-02-17 15:39:51 UTC https://padlet.com/laura_peralta1/decolonizinginterventionsdst725/wish/332122251 laura_peralta1 https://padlet.com/laura_peralta1/decolonizinginterventionsdst725/wish/332540966 Eggertson, L.
