Abstract	In this article, we advocate for anticolonial media literacy as an important complement to critical race media literacy. Given pervasive misrepresentation of Indigenous peoples in media, teachers must explicitly learn to challenge colonizing and dehumanizing representations of Indigenous life in the media and help their students to do the same. Drawing from several Native studies theories, we forward anticolonial media literacy as a tool to help teachers detect and interrupt colonial logics. After modeling anticolonial medial literacy in practice, we draw from Nambé Pueblo scholar Debbie Reese's framework of "critical Indigenous literacies" to support teachers in including and creating respectful alternatives.
