CORE 192C - Native Americans in the Southwest

Focusing on the words from people within the Pueblo, Apache, and Dine communities of what is now called the American southwest, students are introduced to Native American intellectual traditions and their longstanding history. Works from poets, storytellers, educators, artists, scientists, tribal council members, elders are the heart of this course in a sustained consideration of interdependence, complementarity, and the vital interconnections across past and present that are held within specific places. Particular attention is given to the importance of the land, to language retention, and to the power of story as an interventionary force in colonialism and neocolonialism.
