Listening for the Canaries: Addressing Racial Battle Fatigue in First Nations Students in Higher Education
Crystal Lepscier
ProQuest LLC, Ed.D. Dissertation, University of Wisconsin - Green Bay
The purpose of this research study was to examine the impact of Racial Battle Fatigue on First Nations students in higher education through the lens of Tribal Critical Race Theory. This work is grounded in understanding how the weight of racialization affects the experiences of First Nations students enrolled at Institutions of Higher Education. It also examines how to address the stigmas of Racial Battle Fatigue to focus on the holistic wellness of First Nations students in academia through creative expression. Six student co-researchers helped formulate the data in this study through their shared stories on their experiences with RBF in their educational journeys. The following four themes were identified from their stories: External Fatigue, Internal Fatigue, Intergenerational Responsibility, and Sole Voice. A fifth theme was identified that worked in support of the First Nations students, Cultural Nourishment. Through praxis, community, and relationships, Cultural Nourishment provided a protective factor for the student co-researchers.
