After receiving my MAT and teaching in the elementary classroom for seven years, I felt a call toward something greater. It wasn’t just about teaching subjects or managing classrooms—it was about the deeper work of transformation. I realized that all the practices I had been experimenting with, the ways I engaged with my students, and the values I emphasized, were slowly leading me here. Without knowing it, I had been practicing the principles of decolonizing and rematriating education all along.
As an Indigenous educator, advocate, and lifelong learner, I’ve walked the path of questioning and unlearning colonial narratives while rediscovering the wisdom of my ancestors. I carry the stories, teachings, and resilience of those who came before me—voices that were silenced for too long but now demand to be heard.
Now is the time to act because the future of education—and society—depends on it. Our classrooms are where tomorrow’s leaders are shaped, where identities are honored or erased, and where the seeds of equity and justice can take root.
I’m here to share this message because I’ve seen firsthand how transformative education can be when it centers inclusion, respect, and cultural relevance. This isn’t just a book; it’s a call to action—a bridge between where we are and where we need to go.
Together, we can rematriate the world. Will you join me?
Love and gratitude,
