However, the chief is not comfortable with the federal government referring to the declaration as "aspirational. "We don't aspire to be Indians. We don't aspire to be First Nations," said a frustrated [Cameron Alexis]. "We didn't like some of the language in there."

- 'So, What's a White Girl Like Me Doing in a Place Like This?': Rethinking Pedagogical Practices in an Indigenous Context

In their readings and discussions, my students began to understand how the Indigenous writers on their course list were re-working African-American activist, essayist and poet Audre Lorde's groundbreaking feminist tenet of the 1980s: the master 's tools will never dismantle the master 's house.1 In the 1990s, these writers were making this powerful slogan speak again but differently, this time within the context of the colonization of Indigenous peoples, and in active resistance to the "lethal legacy"8 of government and church policies directed toward the assimilation of First Nations peoples. The loss not only of ancestral lands but also traditional cultures and identities through treaty negotiations, the Indian Act and residential sch...

"Many of my students are non-Aboriginal, so it's important to have a good representation of heritages working together. "The eastern door of the longhouse features the rising sun. The western door sees the setting sun. And the ground beneath us is like our floor of the long house, and the sky is our roof. The symbolic long house stretches across our territory, and we are part of one extended family, comprised of the five nations of the Mohawk, which includes the Oneida, Cayuga, Onondaga and Seneca.
