Indigenous Shakespeare: Jamie Paris, ‘Becoming a Wolf: Indigenous Pedagogies and Settler Supervision in Sayet’s Where We Belong’, Literature Compass, 2025

16Sep25

Abstract: This article discusses Indigenous pedagogies and deep relationally Mohican playwright and educator Madeline Sayet’s Where We Belong. The play challenges the idea that Shakespeare is settler property, and it frames Sayet’s quitting her doctoral program and returning to her community as heroic. This paper argues that an Indigenous pedagogy should be based on love, kinship, and belonging.
