Bio/Research
Madeline Whetung comes to Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly Ryerson) from the University of British Columbia, where she is currently completing a PhD in Geography under the supervision of Dr. Sarah Hunt.
She is of Michi Saagiig Nishnaabeg and Scottish descent and a member of Curve Lake First Nation. Whetung’s interdisciplinary research emerges out of her background as a frontline anti-violence educator and advocate as well as land-based practice and revolves around questions of decolonization, gender, race, law, and violence. Her SSHRC-funded dissertation work is focussed on drawing together grounded knowledge and practice surrounding accountability for violence and harm across multi-scalar, intercultural, and interethnic queer relationships within the contemporary layered geography of Michi Saagiig Nishnaabeg territory.
