Teaching Truly offers K-16 teachers course-specific guidelines for indigenizing mainstream education. Each chapter first exposes educational hegemony, including that existing within the new common core standards, and then offers alternative, time-tested perspectives and exercises to counter and/or counter-balance such hegemony.
