Abstract
"In The Knowledge Seeker, Blair Stonechild shares his sixty-year journey of learning - from residential school to PhD and beyond - while trying to find a place for Indigenous spirituality in the classroom. Encouraged by an Elder who insisted sacred information be written down, Stonechild explores the underlying philosophy of his people's teachings to demonstrate that Indigenous spirituality can speak to our urgent, contemporary concerns."--Amazon.
