The paper discusses the historico-critical need to clarify the principles of research and how it can be used to establish more conscious subjectivities helpful in enriching the numerous professions upholding our society. At the very core of these principles is the examination of notions of whiteness not just as a racial issue but also a symbolic representation of knowledge that is enslaved by continuing colonial processes. The value of actively historicizing, clarifying social relations and challenging the foundations of knowledge will be analyzed as fundamental to all research
