Case Study Highlight: The Visual History Archive in the Classroom

Native American/Indigenous Studies

Faculty Name:
Dana Powell, Associate Professor of Anthropology
Institution Name:
Appalachian State University

This upper-level undergraduate seminar focused on the field of Native American/Indigenous studies as both a body of critical theory and a form of cultural critique. Interdisciplinary in nature, the seminar examined the theories and major questions in the field, with a deliberate departure from a typical area-studies approach. Major emphasis was put on settlement and resistance in North America, but also in Australia, New Zealand, and Oceania.
