Nourishing resistance and healing in dark times: teaching through a Body-Soul Rooted Pedagogy
Nourishing resistance and healing in dark times: teaching through a Body-Soul Rooted Pedagogy
For centuries, schooling has enacted trauma and cultural erasure. Today, the neoliberal corporate ‘reform’ agenda contributes to destabilizing communities and separating educators, children, and families from the power education holds to unlock inquiry, creativity, connectedness, and agency toward resistance. Authors shape a pedagogical framework for use across teacher education and schools utilizing Chicana Feminist and Indigenous epistemologies. In earlier work, authors posit six tenets of Body-Soul Rooted Pedagogy galvanizing resistance/resilience mechanisms enduring in body, spirit, and land to transform education. Here, we forward Tenet 6, which shapes a hopeful, healing, regenerative pedagogy for the traumas of U.S. schooling.
