NAS 365 - Decolonization Theory

3 Credits


In this course, students study a theoretical foundation for the field of Indigenous Studies, including postcolonial and decolonization theory, Indigenous-centered research methodologies, and community engagement that promotes a decolonizing agenda.  Working across disciplines, students explore strategies to use Indigenous knowledge traditions in order to undo the colonial legacy, and to address contemporary problems in Indigenous communities today.
Prerequisites: Any NAS course or junior standing
