Have you thought about the ways that your recreational pursuits have been influenced by colonization? Dr. Dan Henhawk discusses the history of colonization and recreation, the concept of Indigenous relationality, and how we can adapt to the changes in our environment by engaging in respectful and reciprocal relationships with the natural world.

This episode is based on a syllabus Dr. Henhawk created for the "Introduction to Outdoor and Land-Based Recreation" course at the University of Manitoba. If you are interested in exploring this course, or would like to follow-up with Dr. Henhawk, follow the link below:
