Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These are unprecedented times. Like never before, humans, having separated themselves from the web of life through the skillful use of their opposable thumbs, have invented the means of extinction and have systematized it for the benefit of the few at the expense of all else. Yet humans are also designing fixes and alternatives that will soon overcome the straight line trajectory to ugliness and loss that the current order would lead the rest of humanity through. The works in this dissertation are connected by two themes: (1) those humans who happen to be closely connected to the lands, waters and wildlife, through millennia of adaptation and inventive association, have a great deal to share with the rest, who, through history have become distanced from the lands and waters and wildlife they came from; and (2) as the inheritors of all the insults that the current disrespectful and wasteful system is heaping upon all true sensibilities, young people, who are indigenous, and who are the critical generation for biocultural survival, have an immense role to play - for their cultures, and for all of the rest. The survivance of autochthonous culture through intergenerational conduct of cultural practice and spirituality is profoundly affected by fundamental physical factors of resilience related to food, water, and energy security, and the intergenerational participation of youth. So this work is not so much an indictment of the system as it is an attempt to reveal at least two ways that the work of these young indigenous people can be expedited: through the transformation of their education so that more of their time as youths is spent focusing on the wonderful attributes of their cultural associations with the lands, waters, and wildlife; and through the creation of a self-sustaining youth owned and operated enterprise that provides needed services to communities so they can adapt to and mitigate the increasingly variable, unpredictable, and dangerous effects and impacts of global heating and climate disruption.

Book Synopsis The Circle of Indigenous Youth by : Marnie Hope Wohl Bennett
Download or read book The Circle of Indigenous Youth written by Marnie Hope Wohl Bennett and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis engages in a critical analysis of main-stream approaches to international youth exchange as they relate to colonial influences on identity construction. I engage with potentials for healing and transformation based on my and others' experiences involved in international programs (alternative and main-stream). I explore barriers to participation in international programs for youth who have been socially marginalized within Canada. By engaging in a Participatory Action Research process with three groups of youth who participated in international programs, I discuss and document issues faced by these people emerging from their involvement in international placements and co-examine social consciousness regarding issues of power. I wish this process to provide a framework for discussion and action possibly leading to alternative models of international programs involving youth who have been socially marginalized that give voice to traditional Indigenous values, earth and community healing, and a critical social consciousness rooted in traditional wisdom.

Book Synopsis Indigenous Youth and Multilingualism by : Leisy T. Wyman
Download or read book Indigenous Youth and Multilingualism written by Leisy T. Wyman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-08-22 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bridging the fields of youth studies and language planning and policy, this book takes a close, nuanced look at Indigenous youth bi/multilingualism across diverse cultural and linguistic settings, drawing out comparisons, contrasts, and important implications for language planning and policy and for projects designed to curtail language loss. Indigenous and non-Indigenous scholars with longstanding ties to language planning efforts in diverse Indigenous communities examine language policy and planning as de facto and de jure – as covert and overt, bottom-up and top-down. This approach illuminates crosscutting themes of language identity and ideology, cultural conflict, and linguistic human rights as youth negotiate these issues within rapidly changing sociolinguistic contexts. A distinctive feature of the book is its chapters and commentaries by Indigenous scholars writing about their own communities. This landmark volume stands alone in offering a look at diverse Indigenous youth in multiple endangered language communities, new theoretical, empirical, and methodological insights, and lessons for intergenerational language planning in dynamic sociocultural contexts.
Book Synopsis Prairie Rising by : Jaskiran K Dhillon
Download or read book Prairie Rising written by Jaskiran K Dhillon and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2017-04-24 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2016, Canada’s newly elected federal government publically committed to reconciling the social and material deprivation of Indigenous communities across the country. Does this outward shift in the Canadian state’s approach to longstanding injustices facing Indigenous peoples reflect a “transformation with teeth,” or is it merely a reconstructed attempt at colonial Indigenous-settler relations? Prairie Rising provides a series of critical reflections about the changing face of settler colonialism in Canada through an ethnographic investigation of Indigenous-state relations in the city of Saskatoon. Jaskiran Dhillon uncovers how various groups including state agents, youth workers, and community organizations utilize participatory politics in order to intervene in the lives of Indigenous youth living under conditions of colonial occupation and marginality. In doing so, this accessibly written book sheds light on the changing forms of settler governance and the interlocking systems of education, child welfare, and criminal justice that sustain it. Dhillon’s nuanced and fine-grained analysis exposes how the push for inclusionary governance ultimately reinstates colonial settler authority and raises startling questions about the federal

Book excerpt: "A collection of photographs and stories about how urban community gardens contribute to the holistic health of individuals and urban neighbourhoods as well as food security. As part of the Urban Gardens Project, Indigenous youth in Brandon and Winnipeg, Manitoba, ages 18-29 years, designed, installed and harvested demonstration gardens; photographing each phase of the project. The Indigenous youth also mapped the location of community gardens and grocery stores in Winnipeg's North End and in Brandon to identify areas where food deserts were found. The Urban Garden Project reflected community-based collaborative research through the involvement of Brandon University, Brandon Friendship Centre, the Manitoba Métis Federation Southwest Region, Four Arrows Regional Health Authority, and Indigenous youth in Winnipeg and Brandon, Manitoba"--Page 8.
Book Synopsis Urban Indigenous Youth Reframing Two-Spirit by : Marie Laing
Download or read book Urban Indigenous Youth Reframing Two-Spirit written by Marie Laing and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-03-15 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers insights from young trans, queer, and two-spirit Indigenous people in Toronto who examine the breadth and depth of meanings that two-spirit holds. Tracing the refusals and desires of these youth and their communities, Urban Indigenous Youth Reframing Two-Spirit expands critical conversations on queerness, Indigeneity, and community and simultaneously troubles the idea that articulating a definition of two-spirit is a worthwhile undertaking. Beyond the expansion of these conversations, this book also seeks to empower community members, educators, and young people — both Indigenous and non-Indigenous — to better support the self-determination of trans, queer, and two-spirit Indigenous youth. By including a research zine and community discussion guidelines, Laing demonstrates the possibility of powerful change that comes from Indigenous people creating spaces to share knowledge with one another.

Book Synopsis Engaging Youth in Critical Arts Pedagogies and Creative Research for Social Justice by : Kristen P. Goessling
Download or read book Engaging Youth in Critical Arts Pedagogies and Creative Research for Social Justice written by Kristen P. Goessling and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-03-30 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published as a special issue of the International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education, this volume explores how researchers, educators, artists, and scholars can collaborate with, and engage young people in art, creative practice, and research to work towards social justice and political engagement. By critically interrogating the dominant discourses, cultural, and structural obstacles that we all face today, this volume explores the potential of critical arts pedagogies and community-based research projects to empower young people as agents of social change. Chapters offer nuanced analyses of the limits of arts-based social justice collaborations, and grapple with key ethical, practical, and methodological issues that can arise in creative approaches to youth participatory action research. Theoretical contributions are enhanced by Notes from the Field, which highlight prime examples of arts-based youth work occurring across North America. As a whole, the volume powerfully advocates for collaborative creative practices that facilitate young people to build power, hope, agency, and skills through creative social engagement. This volume will be of interest to scholars, researchers, postgraduate students, and scholar-practitioners involved in community- and arts-based research and education, as well as those working with marginalized youth to improve their opportunities and access to a quality education and to deepen their political participation and engagement in intergenerational partnerships aiming to increase the conditions for social justice.

Book Synopsis Designing Critical and Creative Learning with Indigenous Youth by : Donna DeGennaro
Download or read book Designing Critical and Creative Learning with Indigenous Youth written by Donna DeGennaro and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-04-13 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designing Critical and Creative Learning with Indigenous Youth: A Personal Journey traces the events leading to the creation of Unlocking Silent Histories (USH) and outlines the program’s foundational and methodological principles. The book opens with an explanation of the author’s struggles with the theory-practice tension, a conflict that has inhibited the widespread adoption and actualization of socially just learning engagements. She then offers her rationale for taking a leave from academia to concentrate fully on developing a critical pedagogy-informed learning design facilitated by combining community-connected inquiry with video ethnography. The substance of the text focuses on the identified foundational and methodological principles, explained through first-hand accounts of USH’s year-one participants. These youth-centered chapters assist in presenting an argument for employing culturally responsive and socially just educational engagements. At the same time, the chapters illustrate how drawing on youth voice can more broadly contribute to bridging theory and practice in communities that are often disconnected from the larger educational discourse. The author does not intend to provide a scripted implementation process within USH or of educational in general. Rather she uses first-hand youth accounts in this cultural context to give the reader a lived experience of how a youth-directed, emergent learning path materializes when employing a model that draws on local knowledge and invite youth voice.
