Institution:

Eastern University

Subject:

History

Description:

Native American History provides a significant introduction to American Indian cultures, societies, and histories, defining the relationship between Indian communities and foreign settlers (often European but also African). In doing so, natives will find a central role in a developing American history. Important themes repeated throughout the semester focus on indigenous religion and syncretic Christianity, native economies,Indian resistance and warfare, reservation construction, early environmentalism, Indian removal, and education. The course covers a huge geographical region (all of the continental United States, north central Mexico, and southeast Canada) and a large time frame (roughly from 1500-1975). Some topics, by necessity, will be surveyed, while other topics will be repeated weekly.
