Download or read book Indigenous Feminist Gikendaasowin (Knowledge) written by Tricia McGuire-Adams and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-20 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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 women’s 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.
