Abstract

Nursing scholarship and practice has been historically complicit in the (re)production of racial inequities by not acknowledging and countering their part in the legacy of colonization . This paper will discuss the implementation of an experiential transformative learning project, RéconciliACTION, grounded in critical social justice theory. Four elements – testimonial authority, experiential learning, reciprocity, and relationality - can be implemented in nursing education that value lived experience to create change toward address anti-Indigenous racism in educational settings and health institutions. Lessons from the RéconciliACTION Project reinforce the need to increase nursing educators' knowledge of such methods and practices. Essential to this process is the recognition of lived experience as knowledge via Testimonial Authority. The process of transformation begins with the integration of anti-racist practices and Indigenous content. This project seeks to create leaders and allies in the journey towards reconciliation, reducing anti-racist attitudes and practices in educational and medical facilities
