| Course Description |
This course takes a decolonized approach to examining Canadian history and the relationship between Indigenous peoples, settlers, and the Canadian government from first contact to the present. Focusing on Indigenous perspectives, worldviews, and experiences, it highlights early cooperation and partnerships during the fur trade, the significance of the treaty-making era, and the profound impact of British and early Canadian colonial policies on Indigenous rights, communities, and identity. The course also analyzes the lasting effects of colonization and the ongoing efforts of Indigenous peoples to heal from harm, reclaim their rights, and restore their culture in contemporary Canada. Finally, the course highlights Indigenous resilience, resistance, and resurgence in shaping modern society, deepening understanding of the historical and current dynamics between Indigenous peoples and Canada. This insight is crucial for engaging with the ongoing process of truth and reconciliation in Canada today. |
