The book offers actionable solutions: redesigning reviewer training to include cultural humility, creating Indigenous-led review networks, and reforming journal policies to honor relational validity and ceremonial protocols. Highlighting successes like the Journal of Indigenous Research Innovation's three-tier review system, Melo bridges Indigenous epistemologies and academic publishing, advocating for institutional change that centers community sovereignty and reciprocal knowledge exchange. A rallying cry for epistemic justice, this work equips scholars, editors, and institutions to dismantle systemic barriers and elevate Indigenous scholarship as vital to global knowledge.
