Why are you part of the Indigenous Education Network? Being part of the IEN provides me with opportunities for non-hierarchical collaboration with students, staff and fellow faculty within a context of generosity and care between and among Indigenous, Black-Indigenous and Black people. It is a site from which I continue to learn with and from Indigenous peoples and knowledges, and work with others to strengthen and further our collective efforts toward decolonization.听 Radical care is an ethical, political and pedagogical practice woven throughout the work of the IEN鈥攊n the programs and support provided to students, in our relationships with one another, and in our collaborations with colleagues and with community partners beyond the university.
