Description

This course explores the position of White knowledge traditions, cultures and identities within debates about Indigenous affairs. Students will be introduced to key concepts and thinkers in the fields of Critical Race and Whiteness theory, and together we will apply them to everyday experience and popular culture. At the theory and application learning stage of the Indigenous Studies Major, students are given the opportunity to develop their understanding of identity politics that are deeply entangled with debates in the areas of Indigenous knowledge, imperialism, and postcolonialism.
