This course is designed to introduce students to the major events, issues, and themes in Native American history from 1830 to the present day. The goals of the class are to show the diversity of Native histories and cultures, but also the shared experiences that have shaped them over time, and to introduce basic concepts such as self-determination, sovereignty, and treaty rights. We will focus on the themes of resiliency and survival and the American Indians as active participants in their own past. Due to time restraints, the course will focus on the lower forty-eight United States, with some examples from Alaska, Hawaii, and Canada.
