This was one of the best online courses I have taken. It was well written, great material related to my own personal development and gave me a better understanding of the Indigenous Peoples in Canada.

I majored in Native Studies during my BA 20 years ago, but I still learned a lot from this course. The units on art, gender roles, and Indigenous people in urban centers were especially interesting.

A must for every Canadian. It provides you a new perspective on the current issues Indigenous people face today and have been facing for hundreds of years due to colonization.

Exceptionally well done. Challenged my traditional biases and forced me to think of the colonial relationships with our indiginious populations in an entirely different manner.
