INTRODUCTION
Marie Battiste
Every generation of Aboriginal parents has had to reinvent 'education' for its children. Every generation of Aboriginal peoples has had to struggle with the painful contradictions inherent in humankind's earthly situation. Aboriginal peoples have had to learn to be flexible and patient in their approach. in my generation, 'Indian education' has become a particularly adaptable site for confronting the formal contradictions besetting Aboriginal consciousness within Canada.
