Abstract
Impact of colonialism: Where are our stories? Geraldine Balzer from the University of Saskatchewan asserts that our stories are found when the Empire comes home; in this impact of colonialism focus. My journey to understanding the impact of colonialism in education and reflecting on how to decolonize my teaching began over thirty years ago in a remote Inuit community in the Canadian Arctic. I loved the world of literature, often losing myself in books, living in worlds that became real as the words on the page found a home in my expansive imagination. However, this was not the experience of my students when they engaged with the same texts that delighted me.
