Michael Sheridan is an incredible professor of Anthropology -- he makes you rethink our entire world order in complex and interesting ways. There was a lot of reading for this course, but it was all relevant. Weekly discussion posts (minimum of 200 words) ensure that you stay caught up on reading. The course is a lot of work, but it is very rewarding.
I took this class to fill my schedule and with just 4 short papers making your entire grade, its not hard to get a good grade. Some lectures contained interesting information that will stay with me but overall lectures where not very engaging.
Native North America is an insightful and necessary course that explores the histories, cultures, and contemporary realities of Indigenous peoples across North America. Blending anthropology, history, and Indigenous perspectives, the course challenges colonial narratives and offers a more accurate, respectful understanding of Native societies—past and present.
