Protest as Pedagogy

"In Protest as Pedagogy: Teaching, Learning, and Indigenous Environmental Movements, Gregory Lowan-Trudeau carefully and eloquently integrates inquiry, scholarship, and narrative while demonstrating the pedagogical potential of Indigenous environmental movements, as well as the social movement potential of education. He shows that whatever one means by contested terms such as decolonization and reinhabitation, these concepts remain mere abstractions unless one begins to live within the tangle of possibilities they suggest. This book helps us see how the meanings of social change and cultural reinvention need to be constantly revised as we develop embodied practices of becoming in relation to others who are also becoming.David Greenwood, Professor and Canada Research Chair in Environmental Education, Lakehead University
