Sounds like a high standard. I can't teach organic chemistry but I definitely learned it. I can't teach many things about math well, but I definitely learned it. Yes I really learned it, but I can't contextualize it well enough to teach. Teaching well is a skill that not all have

Eee adai che'lu. Learning leads to power. Self-empowerment leads to cultural empowerment if the ego is kept in check. That is something I struggle with and have to check myself on. (But if someone wants to spread misinformation esp to my indigenous peeps, different story lol)

Yes and what I'm getting at is that if you empower yourself without empowering others along the way then your process is lacking. Especially in an indigenous context where all skill and knowledge are practical and meant to be shared/passed down.
