Abstract
This roundtable interrogates the colonial legacies embedded in educational thought and practice while advancing Indigenous and Africana philosophies as foundations for renewal. Together, these papers examine how decolonial theory, historical re-readings, and culturally grounded pedagogies can disrupt Eurocentric dominance and re-center local epistemologies.
