A Decolonizing Encounter: Ward Churchill and Antonia Darder in Dialogue: 430 (Counterpoints: Studies in Criticality) - Hardcover
A Decolonizing Encounter examines the effects of western colonialism on historically marginalized and colonized populations living both in the West and the "third world". Specifically, it explores crucial issues such as the decolonizing of schools and communities of color; the decentralization of power of the capitalist and colonial state; globalization; democracy; and struggle for political and economic justice for all peoples. This book holds appeal particularly to committed social justice educators, as well as scholars and community activists concerned with the important issues of schooling, colonization, democracy, and the right of all students to have access to quality and democratic education. Given its interdisciplinary scope, undergraduate and graduate students majoring in or interested in disciplines such as education, colonial and postcolonial studies, history, anthropology, sociology, and ethnic studies will find this book deeply relevant to their intellectual formation and scholarly interests.

Review:
«This is an urgent and important book about two outstanding decolonial scholars whose voices, especially at this historical juncture, command an urgent hearing. Darder and Churchill pull no punches. Their brilliant analyses dismantle today's boneyard of political inertia among the liberal left to bring a new and powerful collective agency to our everyday lives. This is a pathbreaking book that educators, especially, need to engage.» (Peter McLaren, Professor of Critical Studies in Education, The University of Auckland, New Zealand)
«Pierre W. Orelus' important text, 'A Decolonizing Encounter: Ward Churchill and Antonia Darder in Dialogue', comes at a time when such a text is greatly needed. That is, in a era when the global anti-capitalist movement is both gaining ground and experiencing repressive backlash from Syria to the US, it is absolutely crucial that an anti-colonial analysis takes center stage as a safe-guard against the history of the labor movement being reduced to a contest between competing factions of the settler-society for access to land (i.e., the means of production) denationalized from the world's indigenous peoples. The lectures by and interviews with Antonia Darder and Ward Churchill in this volume contribute significantly to decolonizing the colonial present.» (Curry S. Malott, West Chester University of Pennsylvania)
