Abstract
In response to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action, universities across Canada are currently exploring ways to decolonize and indigenize their institutions and curriculum. The profession of social work has had an historical and ongoing role in the oppression of Indigenous Peoples, and now has the responsibility to advance and integrate Indigenous worldviews for reconciliation and healing. Storytelling has been described as an embodiment of Indigenous knowledges and validates the experiences of Indigenous Peoples. Although traditional stories have been most often shared orally, visual methods of storytelling have gained popularity among oppressed communities as a way to share their realities. This photo essay project was developed as a tool to guide social work educators and students to decolonize their reflexive practice by reflecting on their personal and professional identities in relationship to place.The photo essay presents a series of images evoking stories of original peoples and settlers on this land and fuels important questions about identity and belongingness. Keywords: Decolonization, reflexive practice, photography, storytelling

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
