Instruction for this assignment.

•    The purpose of this assignment is to center ideologies, philosophies and values within Indigenous policy development.  In these discussion you are to explore ideas and thoughts about policies that have oppressed Indigenous peoples; strategies of decolonization and ways in which policies are being regenerated/ revitalized for and by Indigenous people.  Also what is your role in the transformation of Indigenous policy making?  In each of your postings you are to include references from course readings or other books articles that will strengthen your points.
