Description

Indigenous and racialized scholars, activists, and artists are leading the way in intersectional feminisms. This course acquaints students with issues such as identity, gender, representation, race, sovereignty, land, settler colonialism and decolonization. Students explore Indigenous, critical race and anti-racist feminist theories that resist colonial violence, gendered, and racialized representations of ethnicity. The theoretical frameworks of Indigenous women and women of colour are central to this course, and we examine and locate our understanding of our feminist practices through these theoretical frameworks.
