AMST 225 - Native History to 1871Cross-Listed as This course examines Native history to 1871 – the year that Congress unilaterally chose to stop making treaties with Native nations – by considering the multifaceted histories and experiences of Native people in what is now the United States. By looking at Native interactions with (and resistance to) Spanish, French, British, and American explorers, settlers, missionaries, militaries, and government officials, this course argues that Native history is essential to understanding past as well as present issues. Can count towards “Colonization and Empire,” or “Race and Indigeneity,” or “Law and Social Justice,” or “North America” fields. Offered occasionally. (4 Credits)
