Does American philosophy offer tools for decolonial projects? What might it mean to decolonize American philosophy and, at the same time, is it possible to consider American philosophy, broadly construed, as a part of a decolonizing project? The various perspectives included here contribute to long-simmering conversations about the scope, purpose, and future of American philosophy, while also demonstrating that it is far from a unified, homogeneous field. In drawing connections among various philosophical traditions in and of the Americas, they collectively propose that the process of decolonization is not only something that needs \u003ci\u003eto be done\u003c\/i\u003e to American philosophy but also that it is something American philosophy already \u003ci\u003edoes\u003c\/i\u003e, or at least \u003ci\u003ecan do\u003c\/i\u003e, as a resource for resisting colonial and racist oppression.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCorey McCall \u003c\/b\u003etaught philosophy at Elmira College.
