Decolonizing Sport

The path to decolonization is complex and often contradictory, as seen when Indigenous communities partner with corporations that harm their environment. This collection of essays explores the intersection of sport, physical activity, and Indigenous culture across multiple countries. It addresses historical and contemporary issues, advocating for inclusive methodologies and community engagement in sport history. The authors examine how sport, traditionally a colonizing practice, can be reconsidered through Indigenous perspectives. They also discuss the ethics of Indigenous sport history research and how the discipline can support Indigenous resurgence and decolonization efforts.
