This book seeks to challenge these narrow and politicized debates by emphasizing the need to re-examine the profound impacts of settler-colonialism on the country's history.

It argues that there is an urgent need for greater awareness, appreciation, and willingness to explore and engage with multiple narratives of truth-telling, which are often contested. Readers are guided to discover how these narratives can be translated into classroom practice through unique, provocative, and research-informed strategies that prioritize applied decolonizing approaches.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCombining theoretical insights with practical ideas, this book serves as an essential resource for pre- and in-service teachers, regardless of their educational contexts.
