Description
This course examines a range of texts by Indigenous artists and other cultural producers. In an era when stereotypes, racism, injustices, and inequities continue to undermine the well being of many, Indigenous artists, along with Indigenous and non-Indigenous scholars across a range of disciplines, activists, community members, and others are contributing to Indigenous peoples health, healing, and self-determination. The course emphasizes Indigenous values, knowledges, and theories. In a given year, we might focus on a specific artist, nation, country, genre, or period. Students should consult the English Department website for a description of the course offered in a given year.
