How is it possible that books entitled "Decolonising Curriculum Knowledge" or "Decolonial perspectives in international education" are protected under a prohibitive paywall for students, the community and many researchers? If you really want to decolonize knowledge, use . @academicchatter @hello

@j @gonzalo @academicchatter @hello Valid point! I'm from Nigeria, and this is common among early career researchers, starters and even for some academic... if you're current to the news about the south side, you'll know the fees are much to have a publication, else, open access is the way.

@j @academicchatter @hello I agree. It is very important to remind this in a global context. The scholars that published those books are based in theUS.

All the privileges we have here should be used to expand decolonial thought and not to boost private gatekeepers.
