FEMGEN 103S: Indigenous Feminisms (AMSTUD 103, CSRE 103S, NATIVEAM 103S)
Indigenous Feminism/s and Queer Indigenous Studies seek to alter major disciplinary questions in Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies (WGSS) in order to account for the significant lifeworlds and experiences of Native women and Two-Spirit/Indigiqueer individuals. This course explores how the subdisciplines confront WGSS with significant critiques of settler sexualities and white heteropatriarchy, emphasizing the literary and cultural production of Native women and 2SQ folk. Centered around readings, films, and student contributions, the course also seeks to trouble the colonized classroom by unseating settler authority in education. Students (re)imagine the possibilities of Indigenous liberation oriented toward non-heteropatriarchal ways of knowledge and being in the world.
