Abstract

This chapter calls for reimagining multicultural education from the geopolitical location of Asia. Multicultural education in East Asian Pastoral Institute and the Loyola School of Theology, both located within the Ateneo de Manila University, is reimagined, using the hermeneutical lens of coloniality, androcentrism, and patriarchy, which are related to settler colonialism, from the perspectives of the indigenous communities and hierarchy with recourse to the Asian critical feminist theories of two Korean women scholars. The course on leadership has enabled the multicultural community of learners to identity the “lights” and “shadows” in the diverse cultures of their specific contexts while the course on dialogue with indigenous culture and spirituality has encouraged the community of learners to experience epistemic emancipation that enabled them to generate a more context-specific empowering postcolonial theoretical frameworks. More will be done in the future courses to mobilize wisdom and examine settler colonialism for emancipation of the subaltern in Asia.
