The third section features an informal roundtable discussion with Wanosts’a7, Lettie Battle, Judi Hirsch, Achmat Ajam, and Barbara A. White arranged by Gary Marcuse. The discussion brings together educators from Canada, South Africa, and the United States to share and exchange experiences, methods, and ideas on teaching, as well as the state of education in their respective countries and communities. The discussion touches on theories of Feuerstein and Paulo Friere; Feuerstein’s ideas of cultural deprivation; education in a multicultural setting; instrumental enrichment; mediated learning experience; and the role of family and community in educating and raising children.

The final section features a follow-up discussion to Wanosts’a7, Bill Mussell, and Terry Adler’s “Lifting the Cloak of Oppression” presentation. The discussion touches on how trauma and societal forces shape how one values their culture and their willingness to pass down their culture to their children; how oral traditions are vulnerable in the face of mass annihilation; Indigenous identity, self-determination, and land claims; revitalization of the Líl̓wat language, Ucwalmícwts; mediated learning experience; the political situation in South Africa; integrating traditional values and practices into contemporary society; and Indigenous naming ceremonies as conveyed by Sharon Wilson (Nuxalk Nation).
