<span style="margin:0px;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri, sans-serif, serif, EmojiFont">Earlier Spinning a Better Yarn sessions have included Indigenous participants who are currently studying linguistics at both the undergraduate and postgraduate level.
A number have talked about how they do not always feel comfortable in the university and in linguistics. An important part of decolonising linguistics is to make it a place in which Indigenous students feel respected and valued. This means that the discipline
must acknowledge Indigenous peoples’ authority in their languages and cultural knowledge. Linguistics as a discipline must also acknowledge the harm that has been done and continues to be done, for example when non-Indigenous linguists maintain control over
Indigenous languages that they work on. In this session, Indigenous students will talk about what changes might need to take place for linguistics to meet these goals.</span></div>
