Special Topics in Women's Studies I: Native American Women. This course provides a broad overview of indigenous women's traditional roles and responsibilities prior to colonization and the ways in which they continue to participate in and help shape their respective cultures. Our exploration begins before colonization and the roles in which women played and their life experiences as the result of contact with European cultures, polices of removal, allotment, and disease. Our exploration will be both historical and contemporary, as to divorce oneself from the past leaves one not to understand the present experiences of indigenous people. We will examine the colonists' negative and stereotypical views of Native women, examining such ideas as the Pocahontas complex and other images that circulate and continue to perpetuate negative images of indigenous women. We will read the works of early Indian women who interrogate and question the cultural construct of their identities as well as current Native women such as Wilma Mankiller, the former tribal leader of the Cherokee Nation, and Winoma LaDuke whose activism is known world-wide. Our mapping of this vast territory will encompass a variety of sources including assigned weekly readings and literature written by Native women, video clips from films and interviews. Our objective in this class is to create an understanding of the ways in which culture shapes women's roles in their societies and the transformation which occurs during cultural contact, whether its in the early colonist period or modern day attitudes toward Native peoples. We will attempt to explore such questions as what it like to be a Native American woman in the 21st century? Is it possible to be tribal? How do Native women's traditional roles align or conflict with modern feminist ideas?

* May be repeated with different topic.
