Blackfoot Ways of Knowing is a journey into the heart and soul of
Blackfoot culture. As a scholar and researcher, Betty Bastien
places Blackfoot tradition within a historical context of
precarious survival amid colonial displacement and cultural
genocide. In sharing her personal story of reclaimed identity,
Bastien offers a gateway into traditional Blackfoot ways of
understanding and experiencing the world.For the Siksikaitsitapi,
knowledge is experiential, participatory, and ultimately sacred.
Bastien maps her own process of coming to know, stressing the
recovery of the Blackfoot language and Blackfoot notions of
reciprocal responsibilities and interdependence. Rekindling
traditional ways of knowing is essential for Indigenous peoples in
Canada to heal and rebuild their communities and cultures. By
sharing what she has learned, Betty Bastien hopes to ensure that
the next generation of Indigenous people will enjoy a future of
hope and peace.
