«This collection is an excellent example of the intention of Decolonizing Methodologies. We must live the work, we must internalise the work, and we must find ways to make the work our own based on our identities, our experiences, our communities, and the land where we are from. This collection of essays provides an extensive range of examples across numerous disciplines where Indigenous women are doing just that.»

«Decolonizing Methodologies: Research and Indigenous Peoples written by Linda Tuhiwai Smith is a seminal text that changed the way in which Indigenous research is contextualised in higher education. The editors, Emma Lee and Jennifer Evans have skilfully compiled a series of essays that pay tribute to Smith’s work and in doing so demonstrate the longevity of influence and impact this work continues to have. The volume includes contributions from Aboriginal, First Nations, Maori and Sámi scholars opening with a forward by Linda Tuhiwai Smith herself and finishing with reflections from Palawa scholar Maggie Walter. The collection of essays is a celebration as much as it constitutes a scholarly text. The essays provide messages of Indigenous women’s strength and endurance, love and joy. The collection speaks of Country and connections, of the difficult and complex navigation of colonial structures forced upon us and of our own wisdom and knowledge that sustains us to do this work. The book is not only a tribute to Linda Tuhiwai Smith’s work, it is a tribute to Indigenous women across the globe and their tenacity to survive and build a legacy in the academy.»
