WiSe 17/18: An Indigenous Peoples´ History of the United States

Mare Pit

Kommentar

In the seminar we explore alternatives to dominant narratives on the history of the United States. Students are invited to re-examine and self-reflect on their knowledge of American history and how it has been narrated through time. The wave of empowerment that comes with the contemporary indigenous rights movement challenges existing views and approaches to American history. The movement has opened a global stage where indigenous peoples advocate for recognition and acknowledgment of their knowledge, perspectives and narrative traditions. We place the rise of global, contemporary indigenism against the backdrop of  the larger human rights movements in the United States and paths sought by other underrepresented groups to influence the writing, telling and showing of American history. In academia, the area of indigenous studies presses for the design of research questions, methodologies and theories that show a stronger connection with indigenous world views and knowledge production. We will use current works on indigenous methodology to shine different lights on American history and discuss historical and contemporary developments in the United States. Throughout the seminar we rely on sources produced solely, or in close cooperation with, indigenous communities. Schließen
