In popular culture and even academic histories, the story of Native North America is too often assumed to have ended with the 1890 Massacre at Wounded Knee. Rather than an ending, this course begins at that pivotal and tragic moment. This course surveys the history of Indigenous people in North America from the end of the nineteenth century to the present and emphasizes methods by which Native communities survived, resisted, and thrived, within the bounds of American colonialism in the modern era. We will address issues and questions such as Native sovereignty, the changing relationship between Native people and the US state, and Native activism in the realms of politics and environmental justice, including the rise of AIM in the mid-twentieth century and the #NODAPL movement in the twenty first.
