Dwayne Trevor Donald: assoc prof of education Alberta University of Paperchase Cree and Norwegian heritage. Proposes indigenous métissage as a methodology for learning using life writing to make stories that are braided together to show the relationships between all story makers. As example he uses objects to prompt the stories which show how (Aboriginal - Canadian) relations are 'a lot more complicated than we are led to believe'.

Dwayne Trevor Donald: 'ethical relationality is an ecological understanding of human relationality that does not deny difference, but rather seeks to more deeply understand how our different histories and experiences position us in relation to each other. This form of relationality is ethical because it does not over look or invisibilize the particular historical, cultural, and social contexts from which a particular person understands and experiences living in the world, It puts these considerations at the forefront of engagements across frontiers of difference.'
