This course presents an historical analysis of Lakota/Dakota history from pre-European contact to the present. It explores the continuity and discontinuity of the Lakota/Dakota experience from our earliest records of them until the late 20th century. By exploring the political, economic, familial, gender and educational transformations over the course of three centuries, students can discover an awareness and understanding of another group of people outside the majority culture. Students will discover that 'history'is not nearly as single-dimensional as often encountered in a traditional American history class. When finished, a student will understand how traditional Lakota society was organized, and recognize the continuity of Lakota culture over the course of time.
