The Elsewheres is an online educational platform led by a collective of knowledge keepers, scholars, medicine people, and community members.
Our community is creating a space where Indigenous and decolonial approaches intersect. It honors knowledges as sacred and shared resources, fostering an environment of learning, healing, and connection.
Beyond the Gaze
of Colonial Systems
Here, learning is rooted in relational accountability and ancestral legacies rather than colonial validation. We shift from knowledge accumulation to knowledge reclamation, re-membering the histories, resilience, and wisdom that these structures have attempted to erase.
To be in The Elsewheres is to reject the Ivory Tower's emphasis on individualism, competition, and performative inclusion. Instead, we honor community-centered out-comes, where learning is about healing, liberation, and creating pathways for culturally relevant futures.
The Elsewheres is a space for reimagining education beyond the traditional academia, fostering a community dedicated to restoring agency, empowering spirit protection, and moving us collectively toward a future of freedom and transformation.

A Space for Reanimating Ancestral and Collective Knowledges
The Elsewheres is a space for reanimating ancestral and collective knowledges, guiding a journey toward liberation for historically resilient, marginalized communities.
Rooted in the cyclical wisdom of the Nahui Ollin, The Elsewheres creates a learning environment where Indigenous and decolonial approaches intersect, centering historically resilient communities and honoring knowledge as a shared, sacred resource. Moving beyond traditional academia and the Ivory Tower, The Elsewheres is a sanctuary for community-building, resilience, and the reimagination of what is possible.
Here, facilitators and learners walk together on a path that supports cultural resilience, collective power, and the freedom to exist beyond colonial systems of oppression, honoring each step toward collective freedom and restoring agency through knowledge and community.
