Abstract
Mainstream academia in the West reinscribes racial thinking by strategically reducing the theoretical contributions of racialized and Indigenous scholars to “stories.” In my analysis, I describe how this reduction reproduces the ideological, discursive and material racism in knowledge production by centering the white western scholar as the “true” knower.
