Abstract

This article presents the Conversational Métis Sash Podcast as a methodology. Weaving voices of Métis teacher educators and teacher(s) together as guided support to in-service and pre-service teachers across Canada who seek to learn more about predominantly taking on Truth Before Reconciliation with Métis-specific worldviews and conceptions. Such collective ways of living and engaging in this conversational methodology used in educational contexts can strengthen future generations of Métis teachers, researchers, thinkers, and leaders, who are grounded in a shared responsibility to carry forward Métis-specific conversations and knowledges for both present and future generations.
