Central importance is given to Indigenous Peoples telling their own histories. First examined are the intellectual and structural traditions and contributions from across the variety of Native American cultures, prior to the invasion of settler-colonials. Critical analysis is applied to the role of these traditions in both the struggles and successes of Native Americans in fighting off the sustained colonization and neo-colonization by Europeans and non-Native Americans. Forms of protest and resistance and strategies for personal and tribal liberation are examined. The successive phases of colonialism and the paradigms, practices, and policies of settler-colonials are articulated. Then they are deconstructed using a range of decolonizing and anti-racist approaches. In this, the racialization of Native Americans by Eurocentric cultural and structural elements is critically analyzed. Also analyzed is how this racialization intersects with capitalism and imperialism, particularly through genocide of Native Americans and the seizure of their lands. Both theory and knowledge produced by the Indigenous Peoples are put at the center: ranging from Western academic writing by Indigenous scholars to oral histories to written accounts of lived experiences. A focus throughout is the critical articulation and analysis of agency, adaptation, and resilience by Native Americans to increase their sovereignty and right to self-determination.Usually HeldTue Thu 10:05am–11:30am
