Conference Presentation: If knowledge is power then understanding is liberation. What does that really mean, and how does that relate to Indigenous research issues? What is hermeneutics and what do we bring as Indigenous people to the dialogue? Can the
experience of hermeneutics escort us into Paulo Freire's "Critical Consciousness"
phase in his Theory of Conscientization? Will we wake up or stay asleep with
regard to how best to research/understand, and thus educate our children in this
time of homogenization, fear, and amoral intentions.
