| Publisher Description: Visioning a M'kmaw Humanities urges an agenda of restoration within a multi-disciplinary context for human dignity and the collective dignity of Mi'kmaw peoples. It is about generating a vision of society and education where knowledge systems and languages are reinforced, not diluted, where they can respectfully gather together without resembling each other, and where peoples can participate in the cultural life of a society, education and their community. It aspires to bring new perspectives to our living in relation with each other and with our place, giving new sensibilities to how Mi'kmaq and other indigenous peoples have come to know and appreciate these relationships and the deep spiritual treasure they have in them. |
