Championing Indigenous Education | An Interview with Colinda Clyne (Part 1 of 2)

Today we interview Colinda Clyne. Colinda is the curriculum lead for First Nation, Inuit and Métis Education with the Upper Grand School District in Guelph, Ontario. In this first half of the interview we discuss the beginning of her career, her personal journey of reconnecting with her Anishinaabe identity and navigating systems that are, as she points out, designed to maintain their own status quo.

Colinda has a podcast, called Anti-Racist Educator Reads. You can check it out here: https://voiced.ca/project/anti-racist-educator-reads. You can also find Colinda on Twitter @clclyne.
