Abstract

ABSTRACT We are one Indigenous and three settler academics struggling with the question of what decolonizing means for us in our educational practices at three universities, located in different parts of the territory called Canada and Turtle Island. Drawn to the idea of Decoding the Disciplines as a process for this work, we found ourselves critiquing colonial assumptions underlying the disciplines themselves. This inquiry led us to repurpose the Decoding interview into a process we call Disrupting the Disciplines that we have conducted with colleagues as part of a research study. In this article, we describe and theorize the interview process. Academic developers may find in this process a pathway towards supporting decolonization of others and themselves that forefronts relationality.
