Description

That the literature on Indigenous genocide is relatively sparse reflects the degree in which non-Indigenous North Americans have constructed national histories that either erase Indigenous historical presence, as in the United States, or, as in Canada, promote a benevolent national character. As a result, in both countries there is a refusal to take seriously any claims of Indigenous genocide. This reading course will provide students the opportunity to explore the various ways in which genocide has been enacted upon Indigenous peoples, how discussions about Indigenous genocide has shifted in recent years, and the multitude of long-term implications genocide has created for Indigenous people.

Prerequisite(s):Two of INDG 210, INDG 216, INDG 261 and INDG 262
Note: Students with credit for INDG 498.3 Indigenous Genocide may not take this course for credit.
