Session Type: Symposium
In Decolonization Is Not a Metaphor, Tuck and Yang (2012) remind intellectuals, scholars and activists that “Decolonization brings about the repatriation of Indigenous land and life; it is not a metaphor” (p. 1). Building upon their critical challenge, we enter into conversation with freedom fighters who are using intifada as an Arabic concept to “shake off” oppression; not to metaphorical rebellion, but to active uprising, including intellectual work itself. This symposium gathers scholars who are currently working alongside oppressed communities to conduct education research for intifada. That is, participatory research engaged in actively shaking off educational structures and ideologies as part of larger systems of oppression, as well as pursuing and enacting healing needed to sustain uprisings for collective liberation.
