Indigenous women’s perspectives about and participation in physical activity are needed. For too long, mainstream ideas about how Indigenous women should address their health and well-being have permeated solutions to such issues as chronic diseases and sedentarism, among other ill health factors. As a result, Indigenous women are often underrepresented as experts in their own movement and physical activity goals. Yet, their perspectives on physi…
We become gardens
In this paper, members of the Re-creation Collective offer key methodological practices that nourish us and our work together. These include deep visiting, intersectional praxis, (re)visiting accessibility, and accountability revisited. This methodological sharing is not intended to be prescriptive: there is not one ‘recipe’ for doing this work. We offer an emergent collection of hows, rather than a predictable list of whats. Nor is this sharing …
Anishinaabeg Elders' Land-based Knowledge
Indigenous Elders carry knowledge systems that are embedded within their respective land-based systems of knowledge. When Indigenous Elders pass away, their knowledge systems, if not preserved and documented, also pass away, which has lasting impacts on the continuance of Indigenous knowledge and practices of health and well-being. As a result of the enduring presence of settler colonialism, Indigenous Elders pass away at far earlier ages in comp…
Are Indigenous research principles incorporated into maternal health research? A scoping review of the global literature
Awakening to Elsewheres
“Mainstream” spaces of movement cultures within settler colonial states invite bodies that are White, cis, able, thin, and heterosexual, just as “mainstream” academic space validates knowledge about the world produced by these very subjects. Such mainstream assemblages are embedded within the broader structure of settler colonialism, mutually buttressed by White supremacy, heteropatriarchy, and (neo)imperialism. In this article, a Collective of s…
Settler allies are made, not self-proclaimed
Background: While many settler allies are eager to help towards the goal of disrupting racism, a clearer understanding of how best to harness this eagerness is required within the field of Indigenous health, a field currently comprised mainly non-Indigenous scholars, researchers and educators. Purpose: Responding to this challenge, this article aims to identify ways of working towards disrupting settler colonialism and addressing racism in all of…
The Privilege of Not Walking Away
The release of the 2015 Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) report titled “Honouring the Truth and Reconciling for the Future” has evoked a persistent call within learning institutions to Indigenize education, decolonize systems of power, and reconcile Indigenous–settler relations and knowledge. Within this context, the TRC’s “Calls to Action” are frequently invoked by institutions attempting to achieve just action. While reconciliation rem…
Paradigm shifting
This paper showcases the importance of Indigenous research paradigms and, by extension, Indigenous research methodologies for Indigenous peoples within sociology of sport. Indigenous research methodologies are explored to highlight their specific components, including the engagement of decolonization, privileging Indigenous voices, the utilisation of Indigenous worldviews, and relational accountability. Building upon an Indigenous research method…

Allan Downey, The Creator’s Game
Left History features articles from a variety of theoretical approaches; these include feminist, marxist, and postmodernist deliberations on topics such as race, ethnicity, class, gender, sexuality, culture, the state, labour, the environment, theory, and method
Anishinaabekweg Dibaajimowinan (Stories) of Decolonization Through Running
Indigenous women’s perspectives on physical activity and the ways in which it fosters decolonization have yet to be considered from an Indigenous feminist perspective. Therefore, in this paper, we present four Anishinaabekweg (that is, Anishinaabeg women’s) dibaajimowinan (personal stories) of physical activity, specifically running, and their views on its contribution to decolonization. This study used an Anishinaabeg research paradigm, storytel…
Drowning in the Social Determinants of Health
Within Canada, Aboriginal peoples drown at much higher rates than non-Aboriginal peoples (Health Canada, 2001). 2 Drowning is commonly understood as a problem that has its roots in individuals' failure to learn to swim, a failure of adults to supervise children properly, or a failure to engage with safety practices (such as wearing a lifejacket or boating only when sober). This understanding of aquatic-related injury reflects the neoliberal tende…
