Institutional Diversity and Inclusion Speaker Series: Indigenous Knowledge Systems

Join Vice President and Chief Diversity Officer Jabbar R. Bennett, Ph.D., for a conversation with Bryan McKinley Jones Brayboy, Ph.D., dean of Northwestern University School of Education and Social Policy, and the Carlos Montezuma Professor of Education and Social Policy, for a talk on Indigenous Knowledge Systems. In this talk, Brayboy asks: How might Indigenous Knowledge Systems inform schooling and research? Drawing on recent work around knowledge systems, he adds an Indigenous perspective to reimagine classrooms and research. Brayboy argues that re-framing how we think about schooling and research through a knowledge systems framework opens up different possibilities and moves toward new classrooms and research questions.
