Nervous about Teaching Indigenous Content? Here’s Some Pro Advice | The Tyee Carolyn Roberts discusses her new book on decolonizing the school system. A Tyee Q&A.

Fellow BC teacher-librarians, we need to support these American authors. Many of the books we purchase for our collections are American and we need to have books that represent the lived experience of ALL our students.
