NAIS 81.04 Land, Love & Kinship: A Seminar on Indigenous Environmental Knowledges

Taking a global perspective, this course will discuss the roles that Indigenous knowledges play in the contemporary world, paying particular attention to how Indigenous knowledge holders enact, tend, and build their environmental knowledges through active and moral relationships with land, water, plants, animals, and other beings. We will examine how key concepts like kinship and relational accountability have developed within Indigenous studies as ways of understanding the relational, embodied, and spiritual nature of Indigenous environmental knowledge.
