Universities share responsibility for creating obstacles to postsecondary education for Indigenous peoples. This article introduces a community participation model of research and teaching intended to restore health and make the university a welcoming place. Cape Breton University's Institute for Integrative Science and Health draws on the strengths of Indigenous and Western knowledges, basing its integrative Indigenist practice on the guiding principle of "Two-Eyed Seeing" and linguistic components of health such as the Mi'kmaq "healing tense." Critical analysis and dramatic reenactment describe efforts to revitalize language and restore relationships with each other and with the land. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
