This article explores resistance that occurred during the implementation of an Indigenous education curriculum within a teacher education program. The goal was to assist student teachers (STs) in developing a level of decolonial literacy that would help them unearth the colonial roots of their prior Indigenous education. Multiple data sources (STs written reflections, email communications, and researcher observations), were analyzed using narrative analysis to illuminate instances of resistance. Although the project showed great promise for transformative learning, the manifestation of resistance indicates the dire need for such work to continue. In our conclusion we offer some key considerations for teacher education regarding approaches to Indigenous education.
