Decolonizing Spaces: Amplifying Indigenous Voices
Boozhoo News River readers,
This week the News River has articles showcasing Indigenous folks who are working to decolonize their spaces. A UBC PhD student is integrating Indigenous knowledge into civil engineering, while creators are using social media to share their culture and push back against unjust rules.
As Orange Shirt Day approaches, we also feature a call for corporate accountability that highlights the need for meaningful engagement with Indigenous rights over symbolic actions.
- A UBC PhD student pushes for Indigenous knowledge in civil engineering education.
