In chapter I, Absolon offers a revised and updated introduction, which includes a discussion of events that have occurred since the publication of the first edition in 2011 with federal commissions, reports and national attention to Indian Residential Schools, Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls, Truth and Reconciliation, social injustices and judicial violence, child welfare reports, Sixties Scoop class action suits, and the list goes on. Since 2011, the power and presence of Indigenous Peoples and the impact of colonial violence are undeniable in re-search. Indigenous research methodologies have gained momentum in driving search projects rooted in wholistic practices of Indigenous worldviews, values and principles. Indigenous Peoples’ ways of searching are emerging, growing and impacting knowledge production in profound ways. Topics discussed include decolonizing methodologies, wholistic methodologies and Indigenous-centred methodologies, Indigenous re-search, Indigenous epistemology, relational accountability, decolonizing and Indigenizing, language and terminology, and chapter outlines.
