Indigenous Ways of Knowing
Urban and Inner City Studies · 3 hrs Seminar/Discussion
Offered: Fall and Winter Both, Every Year
No prerequisites listed, you can take this course without prior coursework.
Description
Large numbers of Indigenous peoples settling in Winnipeg, and in core neighbourhoods, suggest that students studying urbanism need to be aware that the city and critical issues in the inner city can be interpreted differently. This course offers an introduction to Indigenous ways of knowing through active participation in strategies that facilitate the production of Indigenous knowledge and through comparisons with Euro-American ways of knowing. By taking part in basic ceremony and related practices, students gain an understanding of how First Peoples of Manitoba relate to each other, to the land, to other animals, and to the world.
