A graphic with the following black text on a white background: “The Western tradition assumes neutrality or objectivity by a scholar and a researcher. It is suspicious of subjectivity. Indigenous approaches to knowledge are completely the opposite. They understand that where you are placed—your positioning or your standpoint—will fundamentally influence the way you see the world. Indigenous standpoint notes up front that we, as individuals, are shaped by our cultures, cultural values, and experiences with society’s institutions. And this is true no matter what background someone has and it challenges those who do not reflect on the values, biases, and assumptions they bring into their work. In this way, Indigenous standpoint theory plays an important role in challenging the assumptions around neutrality that are actually a way of reinforcing power structures of colonisation and patriarchy.” -Eualeyai and Gamillaroi woman Larissa Behrendt- Citation at end of thread
