About this course
An examination of how the complex matrix of legal and political relations between Native nations and the federal government serves as an important arena for critical examination of contested notions of identity, sovereignty, relationships to lands and peoples, and conceptions of justice. The Acoma Pueblo poet Simon Ortiz once wrote that ?because of the insistence to keep telling and creating stories, Indian life continues, and it is this resistance against loss that has made life possible.? The restorative force of tribal stories has been most severely tested when confronted by the overwhelming destructive power of federal Indian law affairs. In this course students will read literary texts written by Native authors alongside legal texts involving Indian tribes in an effort to understand how the Native/indigenous creation of stories contributes to the persistence of tribal sovereignty and indigeneity in the contemporary United States.
