Special Topics in Race, Ethnicity, and Nation: Native American Genders and Sexualities

Catalog description

This course introduces students to some of the most salient and critical themes/interventions within the field of queer Indigenous studies across the Americas and the Pacific from a sociological perspective with a focus on the sociology of gender and sexuality. As a uniquely American Indian driven perspective on issues of sexuality, this course examines not just sexuality and issues of gender, but provides students with course content distinct from any other in the department and university---it offers a historic and contemporary analysis of Native and Indigenous sexuality that is specific to the field of American Indian Studies and Critical Ethnic Studies.
