Description
This course focuses on Anishinaabe treaty narratives as it is important to understand the nature of treaties from an Anishinaabe perspective. The Anishinaabe nations entered into a number of treaties during the mid-17th and 18th centuries with newcomers. This course examines the reasons for entering into and establishing a treaty relationship/process with respect to nation-to-nation, land and resource rights. Further, this course provides opportunities to understand the diversity of Anishinaabe nations; the basis of primordial rights; the effects and impacts of newcomer expansionism from the mid-17th and 18th centuries forward.
Requisite courses
