<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"The Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) Movement in Higher Education and in Corporations, whether well intended or window dressing, is largely unsuccessful because it uses the same dominant worldview that has caused disrespect for D&I. Indigenous Worldview is founded on respect for diversity and is therefore the ultimate source for bringing the authentic goals of D&I initiatives to fruition. This book offers an engaging opportunity to learn why this can work and how to make it happen"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>The diversity and Inclusion movement in corporations and higher education has mostly fallen short of its most authentic goals. This is because it relies upon the dominant worldview that created and creates the problems it attempts to address. Rediscovering and applying our original Indigenous worldview offers a remedy that can bring forth a deeper and broader respect for diversity, and a different way to understand and honor it. This book offers a transformative learning opportunity for preserving diverse environments at every level, one that may be a matter of human survival.</p><p> </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><em>"Four Arrows has combined his internationally respected scholarship on Indigenous<br /> worldview with experience based story-telling to help bring forth a more effective way to<br /> actualize authentic respect for diversity, especially as it relates to transformational curricula<br /> in higher education. Had humanity begun this project long ago, Nature would not have to be bringing us back into balance so radically now."</em></p><p><em>Tom McCallum<br /> (White Standing Buffalo) -- Métis/Michif-speaking elder, <br /> Cree Sundance Lodge Keeper, and author</em></p><p><em> "Five hundred years of colonization has divided humanity, separated us from our relatives, <br /> and reduced them to objects to be exploited for commerce and greed. We are now steeped<br /> in multiple life threatening crises, and staring at extinction. The road of violence, extermination<br /> and extinction has been paved by colonizing the land, diverse cultures, our minds and the future. The Red Road: Linking Diversity and Inclusion Initiatives to Indigenous Worldview by Four Arrows provides a path to the future, a path of peace, with signposts from Indigenous world views that recognize that we are interconnected and are all members of one Earth family . Our highest duty, our Dharma, is living in harmony with all our relations."<br /> <br /> Vandana Shiva<br /> Scholar, physicist, environmental activists and recipient of the Alternative Nobel Peace Prize, <br /> the Right Livelihood Award, Director of NAVDANYA and author of over 20 books, including<br /> Oneness vs. the 1% and Who Really Feeds the World </em></p><p> </p><br>
