Indigenous Feminist Gikendaasowin (Knowledge) : Decolonization through Physical Activity

This book presents knowledge from Indigenous women who enact decolonization and wellbeing through physical activity. In sport, physical activity, and health disciplines, there is a significant need for Indigenous womens theoretical and methodological perspectives. While much research is published from a Western perspective on Indigenous peoples health, sport, and physical activity, less is known from Indigenous feminist and community perspectives. The chapters therefore inform the broader sociology of sport and Indigenous feminist fields on Indigenous cultural perspectives of physical activity.
