Anishinaabe Peoples and our Homelands I

Description

This course will provide an introduction to the fundamentals of Anishinaabe worldview and Anishinaabe philosophy through Anishinaabe Creation Stories and select oral/written history. It will develop students` understanding of how Anishinaabe lifeways past and present express the Anishinaabe worldview of an interactive and interconnected universe. Students will also be introduced to the meaning of “inherent rights” as defined by Anishinaabe and as articulated in the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples and other documents/research. The course focuses on developing students` understanding of the persistence of Anishinaabe worldview, identity and connections to land, and how these inform the revitalization of Anishinaabe traditions as well as Anishinaabe People’s continued resistance to the ongoing processes of colonization. ANIS 1006 will enable the students to participate in discussions and activities at the local level and beyond, demonstrating the value of the Anishinaabe worldview as a valid way of thinking and knowing.
